Holden Colorado RG 2.8L Non-DPF 2012-Aug 2016 3in Turbo Back With Cat & With Muffler.
Category: Mufflers and resonators


Built around a 3in turbo-back layout that keeps the factory catalytic converter, the MPI Automotive SSMKHN0009 is listed to fit the pre-DPF Holden Colorado RG 2.8L (2012 to August 2016). It runs a rear muffler, so it's the engine-back upgrade for owners who want more breathing room without losing the cat.
A turbo-back run replaces the exhaust from the turbo outlet rearward — a longer span than a cat-back and the section where a 2.8L diesel like the Colorado's tends to free up. At 3in it's stepped up from the restrictive factory tube, sized for the engine rather than the tailpipe. The SSMKHN0009 finishes through a muffler, so the note stays civil instead of raucous, and it suits the non-DPF RG specifically — the 2012 to August 2016 window before the diesel particulate filter arrived.
This is the with-cat build, meaning the factory catalytic converter stays in the system. That's deliberate — on a diesel ute the cat is the emissions hardware the compliance question hinges on, and leaving it in place keeps the Colorado closer to how it left the factory. The trade-off versus a cat-delete is honesty over outright flow, and for a daily-driven RG that's usually the sensible call.
Because the SSMKHN0009 retains the catalytic converter, it leaves the key emissions equipment in place rather than removing it. That's the with-cat path, which is the road-minded option for a registered ute. Confirm the exact build and any current state requirements with the workshop before you commit, since rules and individual vehicle setups vary.
