additional ideas on where to soundproof?

A while ago I thoroughly insulated my doors and also under the backseat of my 95 Max, of course it made a HUGE difference in round noise etc. I have some insulation still left to use up, so I was wondering where it could make the most difference...ideas appreciated

Alot. The majority of in-cabin noise is manifested from the rear of the car, namley the wheel wells and the underside of the seats.

Then perhaps I'll just use the rest of it in the trunk...

If you want to find out just how much sound comes from under the back seat...take out the seat and then go for a drive, it is really loud!!!

Now I just need to make my exhaust sound like my old 300ZX Turbo

Trunk & wheel wells. How much extra do you have? If you're up for a project (and have the garage space), pull up the interior and go to town under the carpet.
