Specced for the manual driveline, the MPI Automotive SSMKHN0076 is a 2.5in extractor-and-muffler system listed to fit the VN-VS Commodore 5.0L V8 ute with the manual gearbox. The manual-specific fitment is what sets it apart in the VN-VS ute range.

Why does manual versus auto matter here?

On a VN-VS ute the gearbox choice changes what sits in the transmission tunnel and around the crossmember, which in turn changes how the exhaust routes off the extractors. The SSMKHN0076 is the manual-gearbox listing, so its fitment is matched to the 5.0L V8 ute running a manual rather than the auto. Getting that right up front is why we confirm your driveline before ordering — an auto ute takes a different listing.

What does the package cover?

It's a header-back system: tuned-length extractors at the cylinder heads, a 2.5in run and a muffler. The factory cast manifolds and the original VN-VS exhaust come out together and the SSMKHN0076 goes in as one matched set, with the primaries sized to the 2.5in pipe so the V8 system flows as a unit on the manual ute.

What's an extractor and what's the trade-off?

Extractors replace the restrictive cast manifolds the 5.0L V8 wore from the factory, giving each cylinder its own primary tube before the merge to cut back-pressure and improve scavenging. The honest catch: they sit in the engine-bay heat zone, take labour to fit, and change the note. The single muffler here lifts the sound over stock without the silencing of a multi-muffler build.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits MPI extractor systems like this across the Illawarra. The work means removing the factory manifolds, hanging the extractors, then routing the 2.5in pipe and muffler with clearance checks around the manual crossmember and the ute tray. It's listed to fit the VN-VS 5.0L V8 manual ute; at an RRP of $3,087.40 it's a special-order set, so we confirm your driveline and lead time before booking the bay.

Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.

Common questions

Is this only for the manual ute?
Yes — it's the manual-gearbox listing for the VN-VS 5.0L V8 ute. The auto takes a different system because the driveline changes how the exhaust routes.
Will the SSMKHN0076 fit my VN-VS ute?
It's listed to fit the VN-VS Commodore 5.0L V8 manual ute. Confirm your exact build and gearbox with the workshop before ordering.
Is it a full system or just headers?
It's a header-back system: extractors plus a 2.5in run and a muffler, supplied as one matched SSMKHN0076 kit.
