The MPI Automotive MKTY0189 is a 3in cat-delete turbo-back listed to fit the V8 Toyota LandCruiser VDJ78 Troopy (DPF model). It pairs a no-cat run with a compact hotdog resonator, so it is the open-but-resonated option for the DPF-era V8 Troopy.

What does the hotdog do on a cat-delete Troopy?

With the catalytic converter removed, the MKTY0189 leans on a hotdog — a short straight-through resonator — to manage the note rather than a full muffler box. That hotdog choice is what sets it apart from the rear-muffler version of this VDJ78 system: it flows freely and biases toward a harder, more open character, suiting an owner who wants the bigger 3in pipe without a chambered box dulling it.

What is a turbo-back on the V8 Troopy?

A turbo-back replaces the run from the turbo outlet rearward, here at 3in across the full length on the VDJ78 V8. This is the DPF-model fitment, so it is shaped for the DPF-era Troopy specifically, with the hotdog doing the acoustic work behind the deleted converter.

Is it road legal in NSW?

No — the MKTY0189 deletes the catalytic converter, so it is not ADR 79/04 compliant for road registration in NSW and is for off-road and competition use only. On a DPF-model diesel the emissions hardware matters even more, so confirm exactly what your build involves with the workshop before committing.

Will it suit my VDJ78 Troopy?

It is listed to fit the V8 LandCruiser VDJ78 Troopy in DPF-model form; confirm the exact build with the workshop, since DPF and non-DPF Troopies differ. Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits 3in turbo-back systems like this in-house across the Illawarra.

Common questions

Does the MKTY0189 use a muffler or a hotdog?
A hotdog resonator — a compact straight-through unit that's more open than a full muffler. There's a separate rear-muffler version if you want it quieter.
Does it keep the cat?
No, it's the no-cat version. That makes it off-road use only — not ADR 79/04 compliant for road registration in NSW.
Is it for the DPF Troopy?
Yes — it's listed for the DPF-model VDJ78 V8 Troopy. Confirm your exact model with us before ordering.
