What's a hotdog compared to a muffler?

A hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator. It trims drone with less bulk and restriction than a chambered muffler, but gives a freer, louder note.

Why does it suit a long-range tank?

Its slim 2.5in body is shaped to clear an auxiliary or long-range fuel tank that a full-size rear muffler would foul on the GU Patrol.

Will it fit my tank setup?

It's listed to suit a long-range tank, but brands mount differently. Confirm your exact tank and clearances with the workshop before ordering.

The MPI Automotive SSMBM072PHD is a hotdog — a compact straight-through resonator — sized at 2.5in and listed for the Nissan Patrol GU 6-cylinder, with a body shaped to suit a long-range tank. The packaging is the point: it tucks in where a full muffler wouldn't, around an aftermarket fuel tank.

What is a hotdog and why fit one here?

A hotdog is a small, straight-through resonator — gas runs straight through a perforated core wrapped in packing, so it trims drone without the bulk or restriction of a chambered muffler. On the GU Patrol the SSMBM072PHD takes the place where a rear silencer sits, but its compact 2.5in body is shaped to clear a long-range tank that a full-size muffler would foul.

Why does the long-range tank matter?

Touring Patrols often carry an auxiliary or long-range fuel tank under the rear, which eats the space a standard rear muffler needs. This hotdog is listed to suit that setup — a slimmer straight-through unit that keeps some resonance control without clashing with the tank. It's a resonator, not a full muffler, so expect a freer note than a chambered can gives.

Will it suit my GU Patrol?

It's listed to fit the Nissan Patrol GU 6-cylinder running a long-range tank. Tank brands and mounting differ, so confirm your exact setup and clearances with the workshop before ordering. Material and tip specs aren't published by the supplier.
