total weight of sound deadening material in a 4thgen??

[98tadriver]

how much does it all weigh? BEcause i might just take it out of the T/A while it has some downtime, if its worth it

[Knipps]

depends, stock? aftermarket? (then it varies from company to company)

[Tru2Chevy]

According to this list, carpet and sound deadening together is approx. 34 lbs.

Most people I know who have removed the sound deadening out of their 4th gen say 15-20 lbs. just for that.

cool, then i suppose it could be worth it then :)

if your car is a daily driver, I HIGHLY HIGHLY do not reccommend it. If you think fbodies exhaust / crattles / creaks are bad, wait till you take that stuff out. I don't think ruining your driving experience is worth .03 seconds at the track.

:stupid: i regret taking it out of mine

I agree. It seems to amplify all of the annoying noise.

I don't know how much the stock stuff weighs but I Dynamatted my whole car and it added about 60 lbs total. For less than a tenth in the quarter the difference in the interior acoustics was well worth it for me. Although the price of that stuff is outrageous....Sponsors FTW

there's some component to Dynamat that makes it heavy
& now there are a bunch of competitors that are lighter/cheaper

i haven't tried any of them though

do it, I hope it seems like my exaust is louder, it was way to soft at idle for me, but it just had amazing tone

the exhaust will still have the same volume on the outside of the car ... :wink:

i used b-quiet ultimate and it only amounted to about 30 pounds to do the trunk and doors multi-layered. once of these days im gonna rip out the carpet and replace the stock sound deadening with some more b-quiet. i'd rather add 50 pounds of sound deadening and lose the weight elsewhere cause having a loud car is obnoxious

[slasherbarb]

go T-bag something..this setup is way too easy...i won't waste a joke on it...
