insulation

anybody know how to take the sound insulation out from the car?? It weighs it down a lot and i don't really care for a quiet car. I mean sound from the engine and the road not the sound system.

Mohawk is right, the insulation is cotton, and 1 pound of cotton is alot of cotton, if you see where I am going with this.
