Welp I guess I can rip that out when I do a dash swap to take more weight off the front and for mad inductionz.

Does the CSL have this sound deadening?

Usually for a reply as rude as the one like yours I wouldn’t even bother to respond but I actually did take a few things apart on my car to confirm this as I do with basically all my posts.
his posts didn't seem particularly rude or even directed at you in this thread fwiw
there is pretty rampant misinformation when it comes to exactly how the CSL is spec'd (see eternally long discussion on the CSL Spindles) and like you said, it doesn't help that sources from bmw are hardly accurate
that being said it's monumentally helpful that you can provide anecdotal information on these topics
it should be worth noting to anyone that sound insulation does not discriminate and if you remove it, you're also inviting in all the other (not always desirable) noises that comes from your engine.

Finally have my interior pretty much back together so I took the car for a quick drive. The verdict is … yeah, it’s a little louder when on the gas. It’s not night and day but it’s noticeable. Sounds exactly the same as it did before at idle and cruising, no additional nasty noises whatsoever. Certainly no rattling from the dash or anywhere else, car is tight as ever.

These interiors are really quite easy to take apart and put back together at least on the E46. My E39 had way more clips and bolts to remove and replace when I replaced my upper dash and installed the Euro lower dash.

Will be swapping in an MK60 soon, so pedal area needs to get disassembled. Might rip this out as well while I'm (not really) in there lol.2002 Topasblau M3 - Coupe - 6MT - Karbonius CSL Airbox - MSS54HP Conversion - Kassel MAP - SSV1 - HJS - PCS Tune - Beisan - MK60 Swap - ZCP Rack - Nogaros - AutoSolutions - 996 Brembos - Slon - CMP - VinceBar - Koni - Eibach - BlueBus - Journal

thats a big no for me. i personally enjoy having race car bits on my german luxury performance car. it's civil and luxurious with the windows up and anything below half throttle. Then it gets vocal and rowdy with the windows down and above half throttle. Fits my needs perfectly. Good on you OP for giving everyone the option and insight though.
