The MPI Automotive MBM328MF is a 3in mandrel-bent sports front muffler listed to fit the V8 Ford Falcon AU sedan with independent rear suspension. The front-muffler position and 3in mandrel-bent build are what set it apart — it sits at the front of the silencing run on a worked AU V8.

What does a front muffler do?

A front muffler sits near the head of the system, ahead of the centre and rear silencers, where it starts taming the note early in the run. As the first silencing stage it works with the rest of the system rather than setting the tailpipe tone alone, and on the AU V8 sedan it's positioned to begin quietening before the gas reaches the cabin section. The MBM328MF is the sports front muffler for that role.

Why 3in and mandrel-bent?

At 3in the bore is the wider option, suited to a worked AU V8 where a narrower front muffler would restrict the head of the system. Mandrel-bent pipework keeps a consistent diameter through the bends rather than crushing on the corners the way press bends can, so the gas keeps moving. Together that makes it a flow-oriented front silencer rather than a stock-replacement unit.

Will it fit my AU V8 IRS sedan?

It's listed for the V8 AU Falcon sedan with independent rear suspension. Send your exact build and we'll confirm the front-section length and hanger points before ordering, as the AU ran in series.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits the MBM328MF in the front section in-house, setting it on its hangers clear of the chassis and driveline. Book the AU in and we'll confirm the fitment against your build.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.

Why mandrel-bent?
Mandrel bending keeps the 3in diameter consistent through the bends rather than crushing them, so the gas keeps flowing on a worked V8.
