im on a road trip headed to key west from new jersey. i took the padding off before i left and believe it or not the engine response for some reason feel slightly more torquey or responsive. not sure if its maybe because the fuel is entering the combustion chamber at a lower temp since the padding is no longer trapping all that heat over the rail and injectors. and the engine seems to run 3 to 5 degrees cooler. also if you dont listen for it you wont notice the engine louder without the padding with the hood closed at idle. no really noticable difference in sound.
