The MPI Automotive MBM440MF is a 3in centre muffler listed to fit the Toyota Hilux KZN165R with the 3.0L turbo-diesel. Its centre position is the distinguishing feature — it sits mid-system rather than at the tail, taming drone in the middle of the run.

What does a centre muffler do?

A centre muffler sits in the middle of the exhaust, between the front section and the rear, where it's well placed to knock the low-frequency boom a diesel four can send into the cabin on cruise. Because it's not the last silencer, it works alongside the rear muffler rather than setting the whole tailpipe note on its own. On the KZN165R Hilux it's the mid-system silencing stage.

Why the 3in bore on a diesel?

At 3in the MBM440MF is built around a wider pipe, which suits the steady, high-volume flow a 3.0L turbo-diesel makes under boost. The wider bore keeps the mid-system from becoming a restriction on a worked diesel. It's a chambered muffler, so it quietens by absorption rather than by pinching the pipe.

Will it fit my KZN165R Hilux?

It's listed to fit the Toyota Hilux KZN165R with the 3.0L turbo-diesel. Send your exact build and we'll confirm the centre-section length and hanger points line up before ordering, since feed data can be imperfect on older diesel utes.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits the MBM440MF in the centre section in-house, setting the hangers and alignment so it clears the chassis and driveline. Book your Hilux 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.
