This is the without-muffler version: the MPI Automotive SSMBM653WOM is a 4in centre section listed to fit the Toyota Landcruiser VDJ78 and VDJ79 V8 4.5L turbo-diesel, supplying the mid-pipe with no muffler in place of the centre box.

What does a without-muffler centre section do?

Rather than quietening the system, this is the delete-style centre run — a straight 4in pipe section that takes the place of the original centre muffler. Owners fit it to free up the middle of a large-bore Landcruiser exhaust and to lift volume, leaving any remaining quietening to the rest of the system. It's the opposite choice to a chambered centre box: flow and note over absorption.

Why 4in on the VDJ V8?

The SSMBM653WOM is built around 4in pipe, the larger-bore size that suits the worked 4.5L V8 turbo-diesel Landcruiser rather than a stock setup. Keeping the centre section at 4in matches the rest of a big-bore VDJ system so the gas speed stays consistent through the middle of the car.

Will it suit my VDJ78 or VDJ79?

It's listed to fit the Toyota Landcruiser VDJ78 and VDJ79 V8 4.5L turbo-diesel. Those troop-carrier and cab-chassis bodies route the centre section differently, so confirm your exact chassis and existing 4in pipework with the workshop before ordering.

What does fitting involve in the Illawarra?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits centre sections like this at our Illawarra workshop, aligning the 4in pipe to the factory hangers and clamping or welding it in. MPI Automotive lists it at $375.25. Because removing a centre muffler raises volume, bring the Cruiser in and we'll talk through the note you're after and confirm the section first.

Common questions

Does the SSMBM653WOM have a muffler in it?
No — this is the without-muffler version. It's a straight 4in centre section that replaces the centre muffler, so expect more volume than a muffled box.
What bore does it suit?
It's built for 4in pipe, matching a large-bore VDJ V8 system. Confirm your existing pipe size with the workshop.
