Big 1⅞in primary tubing is what sets the MPI Automotive HOLK128U3-FSMALOO-178 apart: it's the larger-bore header in this Maloo family, paired with a dual 3in full system for the Holden VF (HSV) 6.2L non-LSA V8 Maloo ute. The wider primaries are the choice when the build leans towards higher rpm and higher output.

What does 1⅞in primary tubing suit?

Primary tube size is an application call, not a one-size-fits-all spec. The 1⅞in headers on this kit run a larger primary cross-section than the narrower-bore option, which trades a touch of low-down gas speed for more room to breathe up top — the reason bigger primaries tend to favour a higher-revving, higher-output 6.2L build over a stock-feel street tune. It's the right pick if your Maloo is set up to make its power further around the dial.

What's in the dual 3in full system?

This is a complete header-back package, not just the extractors: tube-and-merge headers replacing the factory cast manifolds, then a dual 3in run carrying the gas back through the ute. Going to a mandrel-bent 3in pipe per bank opens the path the standard exhaust restricts. The supplier publishes no material, muffler or tip detail for this listing, so we won't put figures or finish claims on it that aren't there.

Will it suit my Holden Maloo ute?

It's listed to fit the Holden VF 6.2L non-LSA V8 Maloo ute in HSV form. No years or series are published, so we treat fitment as listed-to-fit and confirm the exact build on the vehicle — the non-LSA distinction matters here, since the supercharged LSA cars run different hardware. Send us your VIN or build sheet and we'll check it before the order goes in.

Is it road legal, and what does fitting involve in the Illawarra?

Headers themselves carry no catalytic converter or muffler, so the part isn't an emissions device on its own; whether the Maloo stays registrable depends on how the full system is configured and approved against NSW requirements, which we work through for your specific car. Oak Flats Muffler Men fits these dual 3in Holden systems in-house. RRP is listed at 5776.53 AUD; the fitting cost is quoted once the ute is with us.

Common questions

How is the HOLK128U3-FSMALOO-178 different from the coated 1¾in version?
This one runs the larger 1⅞in primaries, suited to a higher-rpm build. It's the header-and-full-system as listed; tell us your Maloo's tune and we'll confirm the bore suits.
Does this fit the supercharged LSA Maloo?
No — it's listed for the 6.2L non-LSA V8. The LSA cars run different hardware, so confirm your engine with the workshop before ordering.
