The compact hotdog resonator is what sets the MPI Automotive MKTY0142 apart from its siblings: this 3in turbo-back for the Toyota Hilux GUN126R 2.8L runs a straight-through hotdog rather than a chambered muffler, so it leans toward a freer-flowing, harder edge while keeping the catalytic converter in place.

What does the hotdog do on this system?

A hotdog is a compact, straight-through resonator — the gas runs through a perforated core rather than being bounced through chambers. That makes the MKTY0142 the more open-sounding option in this Hilux family: it trims a little harshness without the volume drop of a full chambered muffler. On a 2.8L turbo-diesel like the GUN126R, the result is a deeper, more present note rather than a quiet, civil one.

Why a 3in turbo-back?

Turbo-back means the system replaces the exhaust from the turbo outlet rearward — a longer span than a cat-back and the point where a turbo-diesel tends to free up. At 3in it's sized for the engine, and because this version retains the factory catalytic converter, the emissions hardware the Hilux left the factory with stays in place. That keeps the bigger-bore flow on the table without removing the cat.

Will it suit my Hilux GUN126R?

It's listed to fit the Toyota Hilux GUN126R 2.8L. Series, year and cab aren't published by the supplier for this listing, so send your exact build to the workshop and we'll confirm it against your vehicle before ordering rather than assuming a variant. Feed data can be imperfect, so we treat the fitment as listed-to-fit and verify it on the car.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits MKTY0142 in-house across the Illawarra. We check hanger positions and clearances over the rear axle, and confirm the catalytic converter mating before the bay is booked. The RRP is $2,279.64; as an MPI Automotive part it can be brought in to order, and pricing is confirmed with us as it's a fitted job rather than a parcel out the door.

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

Common questions

How does the hotdog version sound compared with a muffler?
The MKTY0142 uses a straight-through hotdog resonator, so it flows more freely and sits on the louder, harder side than a chambered muffler version. We can't quote a decibel figure.
Does the MKTY0142 keep the catalytic converter?
Yes. This is the with-cat turbo-back, so the factory catalytic converter stays in place.
Will it fit my Hilux?
