The MPI Automotive MKHN0182 is a 2.5in twin-muffler cat-back for the HSV VE E3 sedan and wagon. The tighter bore paired with two mufflers makes it the most restrained, near-stock-pipe-sized option for the E3.

What does the 2.5in twin-muffler combination suit?

Two-and-a-half inches is the tighter bore, holding gas speed up for low-down and mid-range response rather than chasing top-end flow. Combined with a muffler-into-muffler layout — two silencing stages in the line — it's the quietest, most factory-like of the cat-backs for the E3. This is the choice when you want a tidy replacement system rather than a louder, freer one. We can't put a number on the note; a comparable fit is the honest gauge.

How does the muffler-into-muffler run work?

With two mufflers in the path, the gas passes through twice the absorption and reflection of a single box, which is what keeps the note measured. It stays a cat-back, so the catalytic converter and front pipework are retained as the factory fitted them; only the section behind the cat is replaced. The result is a clean, civil system on the 2.5in pipe.

Will it suit my HSV VE E3?

It's listed to fit the HSV VE E3 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 these cars ran several running changes.

What's involved fitting it in Illawarra?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits the MKHN0182 in-house across the Illawarra. We hang both mufflers on the car's mounts, check clearance to the floor and rear valance, and join each box square to the pipe. Bring the car in and we'll confirm fitment and book the bay.
