I have expressed the same displeasure with the system on my car.  I have not 
done anything about it yet but due to the temperatures involved one is limited 
on options.  One thought I had was header wrap.  Wrap the mubbler with this 
high temp material and secure it with some very long hose clamps (or a number 
of shorter ones in series).  If the material can be held in intimate contact 
with the muffler it should dampen the resonances pretty effectively.
