Chuck:

From the Corvette forum, the suggested remedy for the heat next to the shifter/linkage tunnel and the road noise and exhaust sound from the rear area, especially with an aftermarket exhaust such as the Borla Stingers:

Frost King Duct Insulation, self adhesive Foil and Foam. Each roll is 12" wide, 1/8" thick and 15 ' long,can be purchased at Home Depot and Lowe's for approx $15, SKU FV516

Packaging indicates:

* Use on both Heating and A/C Ducts
* Conforms to sharp corners
* Insulates and stops vibrations

While I have not installed, others have mentioned it does make a significant difference and is about 95% effective as the custom insulation kits which cost considerably more.
