Soundproofing
Posted: Tue Apr 20, 2010 2:45 pm
I'm sure this topic has been done to death, but I would really appreciate if anyone can suggest effective soundproofing for an Elan +2.
I have just bought a 1970 Elan +2 130/s and just love it. The previous owner fitted an exhaust modification it burbles beautifully and sounds great when accelerating. The problem is when it is idling or at low speeds it resonates in the cockpit and the other half is not enjoying it as much!!
I've put a boot floor mat which has helped slightly but I'm thinking more drastic measures are required. I suppose I could look at quieten the exhaust noise down but don't really want to lose the way it sounds too much.
Thanks
