Some comments about the Blockit Quick & Quiet System from the forum
I installed the Blockit sound insulation mat and the behind the seat panels this weekend and I am very impressed. The mat just goes in the hatch area and the fit is excellent. I installed the two panels that go behind the seats behind the carpet. The carpet in that area is not tacked down so it is easy to do.
The mat looks very polished in the rear cargo area so I don't think that I will add an aftermarket cargo mat on top of it.
While commuting to work this morning on the freeway I really did notice a difference. I did not have to crank the radio way up and the voices and music were much clearer.
If you are looking for a real easy sound insulation solution I would recommend this product.

I just put one in my '05 coupe. The difference in interior sound was instantly noticable. After cranking it up I had to put the window down a little to make sure the engine was running OK.
It did however, take me double the 30 second recommended install time, due to me flopping it in there upside down and then having to take it out and flip it over because I didn't read the instructions.

Great product, does what Ed claims.I got mine yesterday and installed it last night.
First drive to work this morning and I can tell you it makes a big difference. Those that say it doesn't must have some really frickn' loud exhausts.
It took the resonance away that the road puts through the rear hatch area (hatch floor, plastic) and the road noise from the tires is probably cut in half.
There's also a noticeable "quietness" inside the rear now that I never had before. I always had that "white noise" behind my head from all the noises coming from the rear hatch area. Now it sounds like the entire car is quieter.
It made such a difference I am no longer worried about putting dynamat or peel and seal in my car. I will however still do the peel and seal on the floor boards under the car because now that the rear is so much quiter I hear road noise from under the car... lol.
Overall, it's a great buy and I'm glad I bought mine!!

To start with, I am not a vender and do not sell these things, but WOW! What a difference.
I have an 05 vert with borla stingers and love the sound. But on the interstate and highway speeds, the car is just kind of loud. Not just from the exhaust, but from road noise. So I bought the new "blockit' insolation kit sold here on the forum. Not the kind that requires you to remove the carpet or anything. Just put two pads behind the seats and one pad in you truck, or cargo area for a coupe. I drove my car at 70+ MPH for a good ways last night and WOW!!! Much smoother and peacefull sound. The stereo sounded better and the car just seems so much quieter in the cab area. I have had a C6 coupe and now have a C6 vert, and I promise you, this thing works! Just wanted to shout out a nice mod.

Just wanted to shout out a nice mod.I was at Carlisle and the Blockit was sold out, so I bought the demo kit that was inside the Corvette parked under the TKO tent. In my opinion, it was worth it because it works. My C6 is very loud, as it is cammed, etc., with headers & NPP. It has an annoying low rpm drone. With muffler flaps open it is unbearable for cruising below 1,950 rpms. Even with flaps closed, the drone was very annoying below 1,950. Most of my cruising is between 1,700 and 1,950 rpms in 6th gear with 4.10 gears. With the blockit installed, the drone is gone at these rpms with flaps closed. Not just reduced, but gone. Below 1,700 drone is reduced to a bearable level.
With muffler flaps open the drone is reduced with the kit, but still louder than my comfort level. But it's a moot point now.

Having had Blockit in my Z06 - I thought it did a great job reducing noise so I added it to the C7 - Z51.
It arrived packaged well. Easy install with a precise fit. I was able to use the rings and shade. I found it able to make a nice noise reduction on all surfaces around Little Rock including interstate and different road surfaces including concrete and asphalt.
I'm very happy with the product!

Installed on my C7 Z06. TRANSFORMATIONAL! The reduction in tire noise is astonishing. Being an engineer I had planned to use my laboratory dB meter to measure noise levels with and without the TKO Blockit kit. As it turns out there is no need to do so because the noise reduction is truly dramatic. This kit is a "must have" for all but deaf C7 owners. I had a '14 Z51 which had hellacious tire noise. I was exhausted after driving it for 3-4 hours. The '15 Z06 was significantly quieter and rides more smoothly....think Chevy vehicle engineers softened the suspension bushings. Seems to be well known that the '15 is a quieter car. Just can't believe how such a relatively inexpensive and easily installed kit can be so effective. I could now drive the car across country....yes, it's that good.
Well, I had a chance to test drive my car on some roads that previously had some serious tire noise due to the road conditions. For the ease of installation and simpleness of the product; I'm very pleased with the it. I was able to lower my radio volume from where it used to be, and hold conversations without raising my voice. In fact I am now aware of other noises that I hadn't previously heard.
So bottom line: I'd recommend(your hearing my vary) .
I can't say it's equal to the kits that require full interior dis-assembly since I didn't do that, but I definitely feel there is value in the product. If you are in Southern Calif and want to try in your car, come by and we'll throw it in and you can hear for yourself. Or just take my car for a test drive.

Received my set of sound deadeners yesterday and promptly installed them in about 10 minutes.
Started the car in my garage and could hardly hear the exhaust with the windows up. Backed it outside ( a lot of snow here now ) and tried the same thing, windows down ,windows up. I will not get to take the Z06 out until spring, but I can tell you that there is a substantial difference in the noise factor just sitting in the car and listening to it run.
Great product. Can't wait to do a more extensive test in the spring, but initially this seems to be a great product !!
Many thanks,
Dave

Just got my Blockit mats today and did a roadtest on the concrete I16 around Savannah and a couple miles on local black top.
Super easy install - drop in and forget it. I have a coupe.
Big rear mat had the slits for rings.
Put my Stingray logo rear carpet on top of the mat and also put the mats behind the seats.
I can tell a difference in noise ; can hear the radio better and believe a long cruise will be far more pleasant.

I have the Blockit mats. My wife can hear like you wouldn't believe. She is the perfect test for these. She stated to me that there was a significant difference in sound reduction. That's good enough for me. I thought there was a difference too, but I didn't want to rule out wishful thinking on my part so I had her listen before and after.
I put it in my 2016 Z06 last week and the difference is very noticeable. Less tire noise, radio volume setting is lower now and much more enjoyable. As another poster noted the exhaust sound now stands out more; my Z06 exhaust is normally set to track mode.
I did notice the action of the Bose audio pilot (auto volume compensation) is much more noticeable now and I turned it off.

Interesting product. Wondering how thick it is? I have a Weather Tech cargo mat in the back of my C5 and would this in any way interfere with a good fit of that product?
The price is listed in the link they provide at the end of the fist post.

Will it fit under a sound partition that some of us might have in our FRCs or Z06s.

3 pieces $215.95
Thank you. We developed it when we installed loudmouths on our C6 back in 2008. We wanted something to take the edge off without ripping out the interior. Something simple.
We used a Bruel & Kjaer ( #1 in sound and vibration equipment) Model 2250 Type 1 Sound Level Meter and it was ran by a trained sound engineer. We were real happy with the results.
We found out that it was even more effective for tire and road noise.
Helping keep the interior cooler was a bonus.
The cargo mat is 1" thick. However, it can "crush down" to about 1/8th if you have any cargo trays, accessories.
The pieces behind the seat are 3/4"
Many place the large cargo mat under a aftermarket carpet. No problem. I'm sure you could place it under a weather tech or such.
Yes. As mention above, it is 1" but it can be compacted down to 1/8th. It was not any issue with any of the compart dividers...etc in the C6 & C7.
However the shape is different for the FRC's and the coupe. We will be making it for the FRC & Z06

Very Interested BUT Confused
I am very interested! However I am confused. Only three pieces are mentioned and shown but as I read it there are two interior mats, a cargo area mat and presumably two sheets for behind the seats. I know I am missing something but what? Does the cargo mat flop over and cover the area behind the seats?

Great. We will be working on this shortly.
I'll check the write up again but it should state, that there is 3 pieces to the system.
One piece is pre cut to fit and lay right into the cargo area.
The other 2 pieces are rectangles. One for behind each seat. They just slip in place. If you tilt your seat forward, you will notice the slanted carpeted wall behind the seat. The mat leans against that slanted carpeted wall. Doesn't move. Stays up and in place. The carpet against the foam also works like velcro.
You really can't see these piece but some C6 guys use to place them under that carpet behind the seat. It was an very easy "lift, place, put the carpet back" Done. We have not done this with a C5 yet.
Hope that helps.

If your looking to lay down sound deadener or damping under the carpet, under the seat. I would suggest our DeadMats.
(Shown below)
Light weight. Performance to weight ratio is unreal
You can check those packages on the same page http://store.tkoperformance.com/1997200412.html

Hey gang,
First please accept my apology for the delayed release of the C5 Blockit.
We had one product in front of this which took a little longer to wrap up. All the holidays and the weather (blizzards) didn't help.
We are about 1 week away from shipping these out.
Thank you for the orders. If you noticed your credit cards were not charged, its because we haven't run them and we won't until we are ready to ship.
If you have any questions always feel free to contact us either phone 800 778 9898 or via email sales@tkoperformance.com
Now with the C7 Blockit out, here are some positive posts I found
