I wouldn't do both. I laid on my roof and had someone hold my back hatch, I didn't gain any, actually lost a little bit with the back hatch held.

However, one or the other, it would be close. I believe laying the roof gained the most.

I'm sure this is case by case though.

The gains you get from dynamat/bracing panels will vary infinitely. The vehicle, the direction things are firing, and the note you are playing will determine what works best.

Some gain over a db from bracing certain panels... some gain 0, some lose over a db. You dont know until you test it, but I suggest not touching anything until you know for sure. Flex isn't always a bad thing - including on the box :)
