Yeh, its a lot noisier.
You can hear every rear beam creek/squeek etc,and the exhaust is much louder.

lol, mines loud enough with interior, last night down the B roads, rear was squeeking like a good`en. Seems quieter with 4 or 5 in the car though.

Even my 1.2 is noisy just from taking out the rear bench.
I definately wouldn't do it if it's your daily driver.

because i wasnt planning on doing that untill i found out its apparently too noisey and its not too often that they chuck out old aircraft sound deadening cos im not paying around ?2000 for 2m squared or whatever the price is

Keep your Nova the way it is and get as much sound deadening as possible.
Bung it on ebay... make a fast buck.

but see,i think some times loud exhausts make you sleep better specialy on the motorway, my pal had a pug with a scaffolding pipe exhaust and the monotoneus sound made me sleep like a baby.

why are you planing to rip the sound proofing out anyway, is it to make it lighter or to make it sound louder in the car? why dot you just take the interior out and see what its like, what , it takes about 10 mins to take the back seats out and mabee another 10 to strip the boot.

stripped out interior + straight through exhaust + alluminium engine mounts = a noisey and shakey ride however if you like that sort of thing its sweet!
