Built around a compact hotdog resonator and a twin-tip side exit, the MPI Automotive SSMKFD0254T is a 3in turbo-back listed to fit the Ford Ranger (PX2 and PX3). It keeps the catalytic converter, so it is the with-cat option in this family, finished with a side-exit tip arrangement instead of a rear muffler box.

What does the hotdog and side exit do here?

A hotdog is a short straight-through resonator — a perforated core wrapped in absorptive packing — that takes the edge off the note without the bulk of a full muffler. On the SSMKFD0254T it pairs with a twin-tip side exit, routing the gas out ahead of the rear axle rather than over the back bar. That combination gives this version its own character within the PX range: a tidier, more open layout than a rear-muffler car, with the visual and acoustic signature coming from the side.

What does a 3in turbo-back cover?

This is a turbo-back, meaning it replaces the run from the turbo outlet rearward at 3in bore — the full diesel span sized for the engine. Keeping the cat means the emissions hardware the Ranger left the factory with stays in place, while the hotdog and side exit handle packaging and tone behind it.

Is it road legal?

Because the SSMKFD0254T retains the catalytic converter, it leaves the emissions equipment in place — the usual sticking point for road compliance on diesel utes. Confirm the exact build and any state or noise requirements with the workshop before fitting, since a side-exit layout can have its own considerations.

Will it suit my Ranger, and what does fitting involve?

It is listed to fit the Ford Ranger in PX2 and PX3 form; confirm your exact variant with the workshop before ordering. Oak Flats Muffler Men fits 3in turbo-back systems like this in-house across the Illawarra, setting the side-exit tips and checking clearances on the hoist.

Common questions

Does the SSMKFD0254T have a side exit?
Yes — it runs a twin-tip side exit rather than exiting over the rear bar, paired with a hotdog resonator.
Does it keep the catalytic converter?
Yes. This is the with-cat 3in turbo-back, so the factory converter stays in place.
What's the difference between a hotdog and a muffler here?
The hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator that trims the note without a full muffler box, giving a more open layout than a rear-muffler version.
