I'd like to hear from any of y'all who've tried the DEI Boom Mat stuff,

either the acoustic material or the spray, especially as a sound barrier on the 914 firewall

many yrs ago Like 1977) i tried the then "hot ticket" spray-on rubberized vinyl stuff in my sixer engine compt - but it eventually flaked off in sheets and was not all that effective on noise - so I put in a oem hair pad to cut the noise - that pad weighs 35 lb as i recall

since i am about to remove the current 2.7 engine, I'd like to update the sound deadening while i'm in there

(I have used DEI's 050502 on the tunnels of my miata & MG, and it is an effective heat barrier there against hot exhaust & CATs)

TIA
