Exhaust Wrap

What header/exhaust wrap should I use to wrap my flex section on budget y-pipe. Anyone know how much will be needed? Best place to buy wrap? Thanks in advance.

All the same, 50'x2" is enough to double wrap, ebay.

No need to double warp it either.

if you just want to do the Flex 10 feet is more than enough.
If you have the bees in the can sound the wrap will fix that problem.

I talked to the guy at warpspeed and he said not to use exhast wrap because it makes the pipe run hotter than it was designed too. He also said the bees in a can sound if it does bother you will go away in a few days. he explained that the sound is just the flex section vibrating. Once it stiffens up there no longer is any vibration and therefore no bees.

Yeah, I've got a budget y, so the hiss is kinda loud and annoying. Just trying to quiet it down. Thanks for the advice.
