The MPI Automotive MKHN0167 is a 2.5in cat-back for the Holden Commodore VE V8 sedan and wagon, running a hotdog resonator into a rear muffler. The hotdog tames drone while the rear muffler silences — a two-stage layout on the tighter, near-factory bore.

How does the hotdog shape the V8 note?

A hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator that targets a drone frequency as gas passes through its perforated core, rather than damping across baffles. On the VE V8 it sits ahead of the rear muffler, easing the mid-range resonance a V8 tends to push through the cabin floor before the rear box sets the final note. It's the in-between stage that keeps the car comfortable on the highway.

What does the 2.5in bore suit?

Two-and-a-half inches is the tighter pipe option, holding gas speed up for low-down and mid-range response on a street V8. Combined with the hotdog-and-muffler pairing, it's a balanced system that lets the engine breathe without going to a louder, freer layout. It's a cat-back, so the catalytic converter and front pipework stay as fitted. We can't quote a sound level; a comparable fit is the honest gauge.

Will it fit my VE V8 sedan or wagon?

It's listed to fit the Holden Commodore VE V8 in sedan and wagon body. The wagon routes differently at the rear from the sedan, and this system covers both; confirm your exact build with the workshop before ordering, since the VE ran several running changes.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits the MKHN0167 in-house across the Illawarra. We set the hotdog and rear muffler on the car's hangers, check clearance to the floor and rear valance, and join each stage square to the pipe. Bring the car in and we'll confirm fitment and book the bay.

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