Built for the long-wheelbase Holden Colorado RC 3.0L, the MPI Automotive MKHN0373 runs a hotdog resonator with the catalytic converter deleted. The long-wheelbase routing is the distinction here — a longer chassis run than its short-wheelbase sibling.

What does the long-wheelbase version change?

The MKHN0373 is routed for the long-wheelbase Colorado RC, which sits on a longer chassis than the short-wheelbase ute. That changes the pipe lengths and mounting points, which is why it's a separate part number. Get the wheelbase right and the system hangs where it should; get it wrong and the clearances won't line up.

How does the hotdog shape the note?

A hotdog is a straight-through resonator that passes gas through a perforated core rather than chambered baffles. It trims resonance and settles the tone without the restriction of a full muffler. On this cat-deleted build it gives a freer, harder note than a muffled system but a touch more composure than an empty pipe.

Is the MKHN0373 road legal in NSW?

No. With the catalytic converter deleted, this build is not ADR 79/04 compliant for road registration in NSW and is for off-road use only. The hotdog affects sound, not compliance — removing the cat is what fixes the legal status, and that's a firm line.

Fitting at our Illawarra workshop

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits the MKHN0373 in-house, confirming the long-wheelbase routing and checking clearance along the chassis as it goes up. It's listed to fit the LWB Colorado RC 3.0L; send your build and we'll confirm fitment, talk through the off-road-only status, and book the bay.

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

Common questions

How is this different from the short-wheelbase part?
The MKHN0373 is routed for the long-wheelbase Colorado RC, with pipe lengths and mounts to suit that longer chassis. The short-wheelbase ute uses a different part number.
Is it legal to register in NSW?
No. The catalytic converter is deleted, so it isn't ADR 79/04 compliant for NSW road registration and is for off-road use only.
Does the hotdog quieten it much?
It settles the note compared with a bare pipe but flows more freely than a chambered muffler, so it stays on the louder side.
