Wrapping motorcycle exhaust is supposed to make high temperature exhaust gases which have lower density than low temperature exhaust gases. The higher temperatures are maintained, which in turn lower the density of the exhaust gas. Lower density exhaust gases travel through the exhaust system faster. I think this does not work, but it will rust your exhaust system, because if it gets wet and the wrapping holds the moisture. Just my two cent.

i ask because on a 2 stroke there r some small performance benefits to putting on a carbon fiber exhaust guard on a expansion chamber other than protecting it from rocks. something to do with temperature. a 2 stroke benefits from heat. heat is a 4 strokes enemy. Thought maybe i was missing something. Does look kinda cool though
