is that bit of sound deadening on the engine bulkhead really needed?

mines gone all scanky and i dont think it makes much difference anyway..

mines all strange to :sad: hmm... does it make a diferance?

[Bluemini]

It tends to hold water too and help in the rotting process of the bulk head... Get rid of it

[miniman5]

what about noise ?? will it be much louder?

[Bluemini]

It will be slightly louder, but nothing to loud. You could always buy a new bit from one of the specialists.

mine don't have it
i don't mind
its funny though, if I put my hand anywhere around my speedo i can feel the heat from the engine.
I'm working on making some more cooling area for the engine. I almost overheated the other day!

:wales: I haven't got any soundproofing in my mini, or carpets either. It does make a slight difference to the noise and the heat off the turbo is more noticable, be great in the winter though :grin:
