I've planned on sound proofing my car since it's so freakin' noisy. It's like made of paper-thin metal, lol. It has no insulation whatsoever. You have the carpet and then bare metal.
 But I don't want to add additional weight. The 3S-GTE will make it heavier, and I'm trying to stay under 2,800 lb. with spare, all liquids and fuel topped off and sound system...and me on it. Just for mental peace purposes.
