One of the hardest chores you will face, when you are creating a soundproof room, is the chore of installing soundproof ceiling tiles. The ceiling height is important, regardless how far it is above the floor, you are still going to have to work on it while it is upside down. Add to that the concerns you will have about not safeguarding your soundproofing ceiling safely enough to keep them from either collapsing completely or just not properly blocking the sound and you will realize installing a soundproof ceiling is nobody’s idea to have a good time.

But you can get around the worst part of putting an engine dyno if you can handle to do your work not directly below it, but from the floor of the room just above it.

Soundproof ceiling tiles and resilient bars

However, if soundproofing an upper floor is not a choice, you will face the job of installing a soundproof ceiling after you measure decibels. While doing that, nonetheless, you will not only be faced with the physically challenging job of putting up the soundproofing materials, you will be lessening the room height. You can make your job simple by deciding to install ceiling tiles, which will do a great job of preventing noise from bleeding down from the above, but for a truly soundproof ceiling, you truly have to add a new layer to the current one. You can do this by installing resilient bars that are designed to keep your original ceiling separated from the new one.

It is quite common for a venue to have a decibel limit in position to keep the noise down to a desired level. This is often a personal discussion, but often not a legal stipulation which the venue should abide by. Measure decibels as low decibel limits can make it hard for musicians and DJs, but it is vital to keep in mind that frequently the venue doesn’t like it either.  They are just doing what they are told to do.

It is not uncommon for someone to book a venue and be notified of the decibel limit that they are fine with. Sadly, these numbers of the limit doesn’t mean much to the average person.  We hole to be able to fortify you with a basic knowledge of decibels and what the different levels in the engine dyno look like with this post.

Decibels are how the volume of the sound is measured. Decibel is written in abbreviated form as dB. Decibels are usually measured using a decibel reader almost 2 meters from the speaker by pointing the reader towards the speaker during a dyno test. It is quite vital to realize that decibels are not measured on a linear graph but an exponential curve.

Soundproofing is the term given to the process through which an area, room or space is made less receptive to sound. It insulates the place against sound and is generally used to lessen undesired noise.

To what extent a space or a room is made “soundproof” depends on how much sound is able to pass through the soundproofing materials used. As you have to measure decibels, this is how the effectiveness of soundproofing is also measured.

Decibels are not basically units of sound. Instead, they are a way of expressing the ratio between the two levels of sound. Our ears encounter a wide range of decibels, which is roughly the difference between the quietest perceivable sound and the loudest sound we can hear from an engine dyno we can hear without intolerable pain of almost 1 watt per square meter.

Enhancing the power of a sound doesn’t enhance our perception about sound in the same proportion. If one sound has double the number of decibels than a second sound in a dyno test, we wouldn’t hear that first sound as if it were twice as loud; we would barely notice the difference. We would just usually perceive that a sound has become twice as loud when the number of decibels is increased by 10.

Long term exposure to quite high levels of decibels may cause hearing loss. Even short term exposure to high levels of noise may cause hearing loss. How much hazard of hearing loss there depends on the number of decibels perceived and the length of exposure?

Unwanted sounds in your home from the external environment and from the home itself can make your home a less convenient place to live. Noises of mechanical sounds, domestic creaks and external traffic can make the property owner to lose sheep while creating a more stressful and less safe home environment. Your aim is to create a quiet and safe feeling at home that is separate from external noise and distractions and for that you need soundproof ceiling tiles.

The appliances in the home have an assortment of moving components and all these make noise.  The aim is to use the appliances and to ensure they make as less noise as possible.  In case you want to reduce the noise of your vehicle, you should conduct a dyno test.

Dryers, washing machines and various other applications make vibrations that make noise. If they are placed directly on the floor, these vibrations travel directly to the floor and the noise gets enhanced. Adding rubber pads or cork to the contact point between the floor and the appliances can work miraculously to reduce the noise. Moreover, you can lessen the vibrations substantially by modifying the leg levellers so that they are properly balanced.  In case you own a bike, you should conduct a motorcycle dyno test to reduce noise.

MOPAR purchased a non-MOPAR re-manufactured engine – the results were devastating

We all have been there. We are having an issue on our car.  Maybe a knocking sound, maybe loss of power or even some occurring engine leaks. The next step is not avoidable. You bring your car to a MOPAR certified Dodge, Chrysler, Jeep and Ram Dealership and your “suffering” car is getting a diagnostic check-up.

Engine needs to be replaced

Bad news. Your car needs a new engine. You are asking yourself: “What should I do?” – The estimated costs for replacing the engine are coming back from your FCA service advisor. You have two options she tells you. You can go for a brand new engine (the more likely pricier option) or you can option for an original MOPAR re-manufactured engine (the more affordable solution) to get your vehicle running again. Then you recall having seen an ad from a huge national Aftermarket parts store chain…didn’t they have a sale on re-manufactured engines? Even so for my particular MOPAR model I am driving?

Let me think about it

“Yes, thank you…let me think about it“, is your answer to your service advisor. You want to check out the “specials” at this auto parts store. And they even ship it to “Mike’s Garage Hut” for free.  This must be a great deal – don’t you think?

Think again

MOPAR and it’s master certified technician went ahead and tested exactly this scenario. They went to a national auto parts chain, ordered a 4.7-liter re-manufactured engine and put it together with an original 4.7L  MOPAR re-manufactured engine with genuine MOPAR replacement parts on a 625-hours of  a general durability DYNO test. The outcome was catastrophic for one of the engine. Because pictures, in this case the video below, are speaking louder than words take 3.5 minutes of your time and check out the results.
