Review: MotorDyne Shockwave))) E370 Exhaust

V1H, those are rubber dampers to alleviate vibration and "hiss" from the OEM exhaust. (The pic you posted asking)

Ah interesting. Still not sure how they'd actually work. Coz there's merely a weight suspended on rubber and a weird straight stiff wire poking through a small hole. It looks purposeful but its function is beyond me.
Maybe it acts a kind of counterweight and somehow is engineered to vibrated in sync with the pipe but with a phase delay of Pi, thus cancelling vibration.. a bit like noise cancelling "anti-sound" The wire-through-hole must be limiting the deflection/amplitude of the counterweight vibration, perhaps it makes it more broad-band (less sharp a resonance curve) or keeps the phase delay at Pi
Just speculating here
