Keep the catalytic converter, delete the rear muffler — that's the MPI Automotive MKTY0385, the open-tail-but-cat-retained 4in build for the pre-DPF VDJ79 V8 dual cab. It runs a single side exit and is listed to fit the Toyota VDJ79 V8 4.5L turbo-diesel dual cab ute (2012–2016).

Why run with-cat but no muffler on the 79 Series?

This build answers owners who want a louder, more open 79 Series without deleting the catalytic converter. With the rear muffler gone there's no chambered silencer in the tail, so the MKTY0385 is harder-noted than a muffled version — but the cat stays, so the emissions hardware on the pre-DPF VDJ79 is untouched. We describe the sound from the configuration; there's no decibel figure behind the listing to quote.

What does the 4in side-exit layout cover?

The system runs the 4in bore MPI lists for it — the large end of the diesel range — and exits through a single side pipe rather than over the rear bar. On a dual cab tray ute that side exit clears tow gear and tray work at the back. We state only the 4in diameter recorded for the part; no flow or output number is added. It's listed for the V8 4.5L dual cab specifically.

Is the MKTY0385 road legal?

It keeps the catalytic converter, so the emissions hardware that matters for compliance on the pre-DPF VDJ79 stays in place. A muffler delete is a noise change, not an emissions one — but removing the rear silencer can affect noise compliance, so confirm the exact build and any NSW requirements with the workshop before fitting.
