The MPI Automotive SSMBM462WOM is a 3in centre pipe without a muffler for the VN-VS Commodore V8 sedan — a straight-through mid-section that deletes the centre silencer for the louder, freer-flowing route. Lead with that: this is the pipe-only option, not a silenced one.
What does deleting the centre muffler do?
Removing the centre silencer and running a straight 3in pipe in its place takes out a restriction and a sound-deadening stage. The result is a harder, louder note and a freer mid-section, with the silencing duty handed entirely to whatever rear muffler you run. It's the choice for owners chasing volume and flow on a worked VN-VS V8 sedan rather than a quiet cruiser.
Why run 3in and no muffler?
At 3in the bore suits an opened-up V8 that wants gas speed and flow, and without a centre muffler there's nothing in the middle to absorb drone — so expect more cabin sound at cruise. This is a deliberate trade: more note and a cleaner path for the price of a quieter ride. If you want the drone tamed, the silenced centre-muffler version of this section is the alternative.
Will it suit my Commodore sedan?
It's listed to fit the Holden Commodore VN to VS V8 sedan. Series details vary across these cars, so confirm your exact model and how it pairs with your rear silencer with the workshop before ordering.
What does fitting involve in the Illawarra?
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits this centre pipe in-house and can advise on the rear muffler pairing so the car isn't unbearable on the highway. We check the 3in mating, hanger alignment, and tunnel clearance on the bench.
Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
Common questions
- Does the SSMBM462WOM include a muffler?
- No — it's a centre pipe without a muffler. It replaces the mid silencer with a straight 3in pipe for a louder, freer-flowing system.
- Will my car be loud with this fitted?
- Louder than a silenced centre section, yes, because the drone-absorbing stage is gone. The rear muffler you run sets how much it's tamed. We can't give a decibel figure.
- Can the workshop help me keep it civil?
- Yes — pair it with a suitable rear muffler and we'll advise on the combination when you book in.
