The MPI Automotive MKHN0175 is a 2.5in cat-back for the HSV VE E2 sedan and wagon, pairing a hotdog resonator with a rear muffler. The hotdog tunes out drone while the rear muffler does the silencing — a two-stage layout on the tighter, near-stock bore.

What does the hotdog do on the E2?

A hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator: gas passes through a perforated core rather than around baffles, so it targets a drone frequency without restricting flow. On the VE E2 it sits ahead of the rear muffler, easing mid-range resonance through the cabin before the rear box sets the final note. It's the stage that keeps the system civil on the open road while letting the engine breathe.

Why the 2.5in bore?

Two-and-a-half inches is the tighter pipe option, holding gas speed up for low-down and mid-range response rather than chasing top-end flow. With the hotdog-and-muffler pairing it's a balanced, near-factory-sized system rather than a loud, stripped one. It stays a cat-back, so the catalytic converter and front pipework are retained. We can't quote a sound figure; a comparable fit is the honest reference.

Will it suit my HSV VE E2 sedan or wagon?

It's listed to fit the HSV VE E2 in sedan and wagon body. The wagon's rear floor routes differently from the sedan, and this system is built to cover both; confirm your exact build with the workshop before ordering.

How do we fit it in the Illawarra?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits the MKHN0175 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.
