Holden Colorado 7 SUV 2.8L TURBO BACK WITH CAT & CENTRE HOTDOG.
Category: Mufflers and resonators


The MPI Automotive MKHN0473 is the with-cat, centre-hotdog turbo-back for the 2.8L Holden Colorado 7 SUV — the most road-minded yet still characterful build in this wagon family. It keeps the factory catalytic converter and uses a centre hotdog, a compact straight-through resonator that trims drone without choking the flow.
This SKU pairs two things: the factory catalytic converter stays in place, and a centre hotdog does the tuning in the middle of the run. The retained cat keeps the emissions hardware as the factory had it, which matters for road compliance, while the hotdog — a straight-through perforated-core resonator — knocks the harshness off without the volume drop of a full muffler. It's the configuration for a Colorado 7 owner who wants registration-friendly hardware with a tidied, free-flowing note. Confirm any state requirements with the workshop before fitting.
A hotdog flows more freely than a chambered muffler because gas passes straight through a perforated core rather than being bounced through chambers. On the MKHN0473 it sits centre-run, trimming drone while keeping the path open — a more present note than a centre-muffled build but more refined than no damping at all.
A turbo-back replaces the exhaust from the turbo outlet rearward, the longest span short of a full custom system, and on a 2.8L diesel it's where the most pipework frees up. The MKHN0473 has a published RRP of $1,725.77.
