since you pricks let me down... ......I researched sound deadeners and found some interesting info.  I read the sound deadener showdown (you can find it on the web) and visited a few car audio chatrooms. 


I found that there are 3 types of sound deadeners:   ashpalt based, butyl/ashphalt based, and butyl based.  butyl was agreed to be the absoulute best.  butyl asphalt was pretty close to butyl.  asphalt, like original dynamat or fatmat is supposedly the worst. uses asphalt that can become "detached" from your floor and has potential to smell. 

so anyway, I looked into raamat and it's a butyl/asphalt that has a high melting point and seems like nice stuff.  I emailed the guy who sells it and he got back to me the next day with some great tips for sound deadening.  I will post the text from work tomorrow, it's saved there.
