I've been thinking about sound deadening recently, seeing as how the car is completly stripped and being rebuilt I'm thinking it would be a good idea to try and make it a little more refined while I'm at it.
So what products have people used? Has anyone done a before and after decibel test?
Cheers Nick .

Cheers I honestly thought this would be something that would be very popular but thinking back I never see it in peoples build threads. So I'll be sure to detail it in mine.

Does that not have a bit of a odour joff?
Its only the same as what voksall used but more flexible.
Personally i think stuff like that takes away the cars character.the noise the smells the rattling and the sense your about to escape the velocity of the earth but really doing the speed limit is half the attraction for me.

cheers joff I always enjoy seeing pics of your car, I think I'll go the same way you did, although I won't go to town with the sound deadening because as others have said it make take away from the Nova 'feel'
