I have the heatblok carbon fiber stuff that some of the other posters reference. Got it from Tim Cox, and it fit the car *very* well.

It's promoted primarily as a heat insulation rather than a noise barrier; after installation I could certainly notice a difference in cabin heat but any change in noise was pretty minor. To be fair, though, this 122 is much noisier than most - very loud exhaust, plus the noise of the engine, plus the noise of the supercharger.

Worked every bit as well as advertised.

Best,

Cameron
