Take a close look at the pictures in the post. Notice how much of a gap there is between the exhaust system and foam.
I have not had any heat related issues with these spacings.
If the heat rejection of your muffler system is anything like the Insight, you should be fine with these spacings.
Please note that the foam gets soft at 150°F and starts to distort at 250°F. None of the panels have this characteristic after driving since last fall into 95°F temps this summer.
