The MPI Automotive SSMKHN0175 runs a hotdog — a compact straight-through resonator — in a 2.5in cat-back built for the VE E2 Sedan and Wagon. Leading with the hotdog: it's the free-flowing, length-efficient device that frees up the rear of the system without the bulk of a full chambered muffler.

What does a hotdog do here?

A hotdog is a short straight-through resonator — a perforated core wrapped in absorptive packing — so gas passes straight through rather than being bounced around baffles. That makes it the freer-flowing, harder-edged choice compared with a chambered muffler, and its compact body tucks into tight rear-floor space. On a 2.5in V8 cat-back it lifts the note without the packaging demands of a larger can.

Why 2.5in?

At 2.5in this is the keener-bore option in the Commodore-platform range, sized for a near-stock or lightly worked V8 where keeping gas speed up matters as much as outright flow. It's the sensible pick when you want a sharper note and freer breathing without jumping to the largest pipe. We state only the 2.5in diameter MPI lists — nothing beyond it.

Does it fit my VE E2?

The SSMKHN0175 is listed to fit the VE E2 in Sedan and Wagon form across the Holden and HSV range. Wagon and Sedan differ at the rear, and this listing spans both. Send your exact variant to the workshop so we can match hangers and the tailpipe exit before you commit.

How does Oak Flats handle the fit?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits this MPI hotdog section in-house in the Illawarra, checking flange, hanger and clearance against your car first. It's usually a special order at this price point, so message us your build and we'll confirm availability and lead time.

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

Common questions

What's the difference between this hotdog and a muffler version?
The hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator — freer-flowing and harder-edged than a chambered muffler. We describe sound by type, not decibels.
Will the 2.5in suit a stock V8?
The 2.5in bore is the keener of the common sizes and suits a near-stock or lightly worked engine. It's listed to fit the VE E2; confirm with the workshop.
Sedan and Wagon both covered?
Yes, this listing covers the VE E2 Sedan and Wagon. We'll confirm your rear layout before ordering.
