The MPI Automotive SSMKFD0246 keeps the catalytic converter and runs a hotdog resonator, listed to fit the Ford PX Ranger 3.2L. Retaining the cat is what sets it apart in this family — it leaves the factory emissions hardware in place while still opening the run with a compact straight-through resonator.

Why keep the cat on the PX 3.2L?

Holding onto the catalytic converter is the deliberate choice that makes the SSMKFD0246 the with-cat option here. The converter is the emissions component the Ranger left the factory with, and keeping it in place is the usual prerequisite for road compliance on a diesel ute. The flow gains come from the rest of the section and the hotdog rather than from removing emissions hardware.

What does the hotdog contribute?

A hotdog is a short straight-through resonator — perforated core, absorptive packing — that trims rasp without the bulk of a chambered muffler. It keeps the section compact and biases the note toward the open end while the retained cat handles the emissions side. The result is a freer-breathing layout that still respects the factory hardware.

Is it road legal?

Because the SSMKFD0246 retains the catalytic converter, it leaves the emissions equipment in place — the sticking point for road compliance on diesel utes. Confirm the exact build and any state noise requirements with the workshop before fitting, as compliance always depends on the full car and its paperwork.

Will it suit my PX Ranger, and how is it fitted?

It is listed to fit the Ford PX Ranger 3.2L; confirm your exact variant with the workshop before ordering. Oak Flats Muffler Men fits sections like this in-house across the Illawarra, checking hanger points and clearances on the hoist.

Common questions

Does the SSMKFD0246 keep the catalytic converter?
Yes — this is the with-cat hotdog section, so the factory converter stays in place.
How is it different from the cat-delete version?
This version retains the cat and its emissions hardware; the without-cat version removes it for a more open run but is off-road use only.
