Hood insulation removal
Can I remove the insulation? are there any adverse effect? Mine is sooo dirty and stinky....from diesel fumes...I guess. months of exhaust leaks.
Thanks guy!

I gutted my hood out just a couple months ago, haven't looked back yet. I really didnt notice any real diffrence in sound to be honest. Of course a set of injectors and custom fuel supply system helps quite the old clunky thing down emensouly.

Well I removed it last night...MAN...I don't think I could of cleaned it if I tried...It is soooo dirty...crusted with dirt, oily residue....and the stink of all that is probably what made my truck smell bad.
On the drive in to work this morning, I didn't notice any noise difference....keep in mind that my set-up I have is kinda lound....but aything that amplifies that sweet, sweet turbo sound is OK in my book....and BONUS....I can't hear my wife talk to me when I drive. hahahah
