I'd go with the Massback carpet. I got the regular ACC carpet back before they offered the Massback, and while it's very good, it didn't fit just right until I put some insulation underneath it.

I hear the Massback fits better, and has sound deadening properties that are very close to stock.

I got the massback and love it, quality carpet! Get yourself a boxcutter with a new razor blade and be prepared to do a little triming. I laid my old carpet over the new and trimmed out most of the holes while it was all out of the car, leave the openings in the new carpet a little small and trim them on out once you get it in the car

Another vote for the massback. Definitely well worth the few extra bucks.

1993SSP isn't joking, be ready with a sharp set of blades, as it is tough stuff!

Or it sticks to the floor and tears. Just make sure you get all the old carpet backing material out before you put in the new carpet.
