The MPI Automotive FX-454 is a set of extractors listed to fit the 2.6 Astron (4G54) engine across the Mitsubishi Pajero 4WD, Mitsubishi Triton ute and Ford Courier ute, 1986 to 1990. It replaces the factory exhaust manifold at the head.

What's an extractor and what does it do?

An extractor, or header, replaces the cast manifold bolted to the cylinder head with a tubular set, giving each port its own runner before they merge — the aim being to reduce the back-pressure the engine pushes against as it clears spent gas. It's the first component in the exhaust, sitting right at the engine, with the rest of the system behind it. On the four-cylinder Astron that's a single tubular set. It changes how the engine breathes at the head; it doesn't alter the engine's capacity or tune.

Why does one set cover three vehicles?

The FX-454 is matched to the 2.6 Astron 4G54 engine, and that same engine was shared across the Pajero, the Triton ute and the Ford Courier ute in this era — so the set is listed for all three. It's the engine and head, not the badge on the bonnet, that decides the fit. Tube diameter, material and finish aren't published by the supplier in this listing, so we'd confirm those with MPI Automotive at order time.

Will it suit my vehicle?

It's listed to fit the 2.6 Astron 4G54 in the Pajero 4WD, Triton ute and Ford Courier ute, 1986 to 1990. Because three different bodies share this engine, the safest check is to confirm your exact vehicle, year and engine code with us before ordering. Fitment is listed-to-fit, not guaranteed, because feed data can be imperfect and only the actual vehicle settles clearances.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits Astron extractor sets in-house across the Illawarra. The job means unbolting the old manifold from the head, sealing the new set with fresh gaskets and confirming it ties cleanly into the existing pipework. Tell us which of the three vehicles you're running and we'll verify the FX-454 before booking the bay.

Common questions

Does the FX-454 really fit a Ford Courier and a Mitsubishi?
Yes — it's matched to the 2.6 Astron 4G54 engine, which was shared across the Mitsubishi Pajero 4WD, Mitsubishi Triton ute and Ford Courier ute, 1986 to 1990. Confirm your exact vehicle with the workshop.
Is this a complete exhaust?
No. It's the extractor set that replaces the manifold at the head only. The pipework and muffler behind it are separate.
What material are the extractors?
Material isn't published by the supplier in this listing. We can confirm it with MPI Automotive when you order through us.
