The MPI Automotive MKIZ0012 is a cat-delete muffler section for the first-generation 3.0L Isuzu MU-X, listed to fit from June 2012 to January 2017. It runs a rear muffler but deletes the factory catalytic converter — that cat-delete is the defining feature, and it's what makes this an off-road part rather than a road-registrable one.

What does the cat-delete mean for this MU-X?

Removing the catalytic converter takes the emissions hardware out of the road-relevant exhaust path, so the MKIZ0012 is not ADR 79/04 compliant for road registration in NSW and is supplied for off-road use only. There's no softening that: if the MU-X is driven on public roads, the with-cat version of the same section is the one to choose. This part is for a competition or paddock vehicle where the cat is intentionally gone.

Why keep the muffler if the cat is deleted?

Even with the converter removed, this section finishes through a rear muffler, which quietens by absorption and reflection. So the note is tempered rather than raw — you get the freer flow of a cat-delete without the undamped harshness of a straight pipe. It's the configuration for an owner who wants the cat gone but the cabin still liveable on the trail.

Will it fit my Isuzu MU-X?

It's listed to fit the 3.0L Isuzu MU-X across the June 2012 to January 2017 window — the first-generation model. Series and trim aren't broken out in the supplier data, so confirm your exact build and year with the workshop before ordering. The MKIZ0012 carries a published RRP of $1,444.55.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits MPI MU-X sections in-house across the Illawarra. Because this is an off-road cat-delete, we'll talk through where it can legally be used, then check clearances and muffler position on the hoist before it goes on.

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

Common questions

Can I register an MU-X with the MKIZ0012 fitted?
No. It deletes the catalytic converter, so it is not ADR 79/04 compliant for road registration in NSW and is for off-road use only. Ask us about the with-cat version if you need a road-legal section.
Does it still quieten the exhaust?
Yes — it keeps a rear muffler, so the note is tempered by the muffler even with the catalytic converter removed.
Which MU-X does it fit?
It's listed to fit the first-generation 3.0L Isuzu MU-X from June 2012 to January 2017. Confirm your exact build with the workshop before ordering.
