HSV VE E2 Sedan Wagon 3in Catback Hotdog/Muffler.
Category: Mufflers and resonators


The MPI Automotive MKHN0179 is a 3in cat-back finished with a hotdog muffler, listed to fit the HSV VE E2 in sedan and wagon. The hotdog resonator is the defining element — a free-flowing tuning device paired with the larger 3in bore on the E2-series HSV.
The hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator: gas passes down a perforated core rather than through chambers, so it flows freely and gives a harder note than a boxed muffler. On a 3in cat-back for the HSV VE E2 that combination leans toward voice and flow — the choice for an owner who wants the E2 heard. It is a tuning element, not a silencer.
This is a 3in cat-back, the larger of the bores offered for the E2 sedan and wagon, sized for the HSV V8. The 3in figure is the only diameter stated in this listing; the workshop confirms the rest of the build, including hanger positions for your specific body, against the vehicle.
It is listed for both the sedan and the wagon E2. The two bodies route the tailpipe differently around the rear floor and boot pan, so we confirm the layout for yours rather than assuming one fits both. Confirm your exact body and build with the workshop.
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits this MPI Automotive cat-back in-house across the Illawarra. We confirm the body, check the hotdog and tailpipe clearances, and mount it square. Send your build and we will confirm fitment and book the bay.
