The MPI Automotive MBM498PHD is a pair of 2in dual centre hotdog resonators listed to fit the Ford Falcon FG XR8 and GT sedan. As straight-through hotdogs they tune cabin drone out of a twin run without the volume drop of a chambered muffler — the lighter-touch centre choice.

What does a pair of centre hotdogs do?

A hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator — a perforated core in absorptive packing — and this set runs one each side in the centre of the dual system. They cancel a band of cabin drone while keeping flow free, so the V8 note stays present and the system stays open. It's the option for an XR8 or GT owner who wants drone gone but doesn't want to dull the engine note with full mufflers.

What does the 2in bore suit?

Built to a 2in bore, this set keeps gas speed up through the centre, favouring mid-range response and a tidy note on a street FG sedan rather than maximum flow for a track car. Running hotdogs at 2in in the centre lets the rear of the system finish the sound while the hotdogs handle the resonant boom. We quote only the published 2in figure for this part.

Will it suit my Falcon FG XR8 or GT?

The MBM498PHD is listed to fit the Ford Falcon FG XR8 and GT sedan. It's a centre-section pair, so it pairs with the rest of your dual system. Confirm your current 2in pipe sizing and section spacing with the workshop so both hotdogs slip in and sit level.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits centre hotdog sets like this in-house across the Illawarra. We check the dual routing, confirm the 2in pipe the units meet, and position both for clearance under the floor. RRP is $529.85; bring the sedan in and we'll measure up before booking the bay.

Common questions

Are these mufflers or resonators?
They're a pair of straight-through hotdog resonators, not chambered mufflers. They target cabin drone on the dual system while keeping flow free, so they tune the note rather than cutting volume broadly.
What bore is the MBM498PHD?
It's a 2in dual centre set as published by the supplier, sized to keep gas speed up through the centre for street response on an FG V8.
Which Falcons does it fit?
It's listed to fit the Ford Falcon FG XR8 and GT sedan. Confirm your variant and 2in pipe sizing with the workshop before ordering.
