Hi Chaps,

Need to make the car a bit quieter and i was reading the raceco website about a specific packing which provided good results.

However it also says they have been out of business since 2014 and so i wondered if there is a reecommended packing?

I have been using acustafil but i didnt pack it very dense, worried if i pack it to dense and it expands if it will actually increase the noise and reduce the flow into the material.

If no options ill get a back of the boa type acousta fil and pack it tight and see what happens.

cheers
c

Have a look at a recent thread on Blatchat about this very subject. Metal Mickey is the best person to contact as he makes the silencers and has posted on the thread.

I spent a colossal amount of money on a full BTB system "they did the kits to quieten down R500's and some" for trackdays, mine never got past Brands and Bedford Snett circuit noise meters without a bung, now on with putting a rear box on.

To be honest I'm not that bothered about bedford as it doesn't flow and brands is too expensive.

Donny / comb I need to pass tho.

Today at bedford I got 97 staic and 104 drive by which means for the 3rd time in a row I've only managed 10 laps at bedford. Two electrical failures and today's noise.

I have a forged supercharged duratec with meth and a re-packable full titanium exhaust. It sounds epic on full chat smile
