fat mat ?

[JCB]

any one heard of this before - thinking of putting it on the underside of the bonnet to reduce noise transmission to the dreaded trackside noise meters ...i know it iwll add weight but it cant weigh much and it is better than not being able to use the car

if its going o work it will be very heavy i'd have thought??

and your problem will be your exhaust on a drive by not engine noise, save you pennies I say

ALso it might peal off with the heat of the engine!

I dont know what engine you have, but are you saying that it suffers from induction noise?

i am planning to change the exhaust but i think i might have induction noise and some pretty wild cams that contribute to the noise. i am looking at all options really. dont want to go through what happened last weekend at donnington again !

What engine have you got?

Andrew

[JimmyC]

325i from the exhaust thread

cant see how engine noise is going to be any issue on track, unless you really have a screaming turbo or screming cams?

[Taffy]

Can't see this doing much jonathan, change the exhaust instead and get the induction looked at

[JCB]

engine : 325i running on standard MAF with a cone filter and home made cold air induction. cams = ????? power output is 210bhp so cams muct be pretty wild. also engine could possibly be a 2.7 to get that power. more details at www.greenbmw.co.uk
