The MPI Automotive SSMKHN0236 marries 1⅞in primaries and a 3in dual with a hotdog rear silencer — the freest-breathing rear in the large-bore VU-VY-VZ V8 ute range short of running open. It's specified for higher-rpm builds that want a straight-through back end.

Why 1⅞in primaries with a hotdog?

This SKU stacks two flow-minded choices. The 1⅞in primaries are the larger-bore extractor option, leaning toward higher-rpm, higher-output builds where bigger primaries help the V8 breathe at the top end. The hotdog is a compact straight-through silencer rather than a baffled muffler, so the SSMKHN0236 keeps the rear as open as the family gets without deleting silencing entirely — a coherent high-flow combination.

What's a hotdog and how does it sound?

A hotdog is a straight-through resonator-style can. It softens the hard edge of the note without choking flow the way a heavier rear muffler can, so this build sits louder and freer than a muffler-each-side or muffler-and-tailpipe car, while staying more composed than running the 3in dual wide open. Paired with the 1⅞in extractors, it suits an owner who wants the breathing and the volume to match.

What's in the package?

It's a full extractor-back system. The 1⅞in tube-and-merge extractors replace the cast factory manifolds at the heads — the main breathing restriction on these V8s — then a 3in dual carries the gas back through the hotdog silencer. The change runs from the engine all the way to the tail.

How do we confirm fit at the Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men fits MPI extractor systems in-house across the Illawarra. The SSMKHN0236 is listed to fit the VU-VY-VZ V8 ute; because the 1⅞in/3in sizing is the higher-rpm spec and the hotdog is the louder rear option, we confirm your series and talk through the note before ordering this major-spend item. Send your build and we'll book it in.

Common questions

Is this the loudest large-bore ute build?
Among the muffled options, yes — the hotdog is a straight-through silencer, so the SSMKHN0236 is the freest rear short of running open, paired with the larger 1⅞in primaries.
What do the 1⅞in extractors suit?
Higher-rpm, higher-output V8 builds. They're the larger-bore option in this range; confirm the sizing suits your engine with the workshop.
