I would try it stock and see how it goes. Maybe there is a,way to sandwich some high temp rubber washers where it mounts at the top to reduce harmonics, I just realized the OEM muffler is isolated at the top mounting.

Got the full NHP permance kit on mine, 200cell cats.

(^performance, hmm)

Wrapped from the headers all the way down to the twin mufflers. Not only it lowers the temp in the bay, it also did cancelled drone by 15~25% for sure. Still sounds amazing though... and couldn't think for a minute to cancel it all. Part of the fun

... or maybe not for someone who DD on a slow highway for 50~75 miles/day. Could be different in that case

That wrap was pretty thick. If my memory is good it was a good 3~4mm thick.
