I used enough of the soundproofing material to do the firewall and under the front floorboards. This was done with the one inch hard back material. I may use the 1/4" hard back material to do the right and left fuselage outboard of the pilot's and co-pilot's feet, behind the sidewall. That would help keep those feet warm at high altitudes. I contacted the company, Soundcoat, about buying more of the 1/4" stuff but the set up was prohibitively expensive. The remainder of the factory kit will go unused. The interior specialist, Jim Griffin, plans to insulate all of his interior linings with something to help with sound and heat. Walter Dodson IV-P 87%?!+/- ps: My guess is the soundproofing kit weighs about 40 lbs.
