Tunnel insulation
Does anybody know where I could get the foil insulation that is used on the firewall and tunnel or a suitable substitute.

Not sure I know what you mean, but if you want something that will keep the heat down some and keep things quieter you can use dynomat or fatmat. both can be found any any stereo shop or online. dont recomend putting it in during the winter though. When it's the middle of the summer & blazing hot is when it's best to put this stuff in. but it is easy to do.

Don't get either of those products near a hot exhaust, especially a 951. They are asphalt based and flammable. It's much better to use a heavy foil-faced insulation designed for the application that can take the heat. I've used this stuff several times and suggest it as a safer more effective solution.

Thanks 2Tight,
I changed my clutch in October and tore some corners off. I used a painters mask to avoid breathing the fiber particles. John_AZ 1988 924S + 1987 924S |

I used this heat sheet stuff. It take some time to cut the stuff to fit but it works
