Built around a 3in bore, the MPI Automotive SSMKHN0252 is a single cat-back exhaust with a rear muffler and finished tailpipe, listed to fit the VU, VY and VZ Holden Commodore V8 ute. The 3in section sizes the rear of the system for the V8's gas flow while a chambered muffler keeps the note manageable.
What does the 3in bore suit on a Commodore V8 ute?
Bore is the headline here. At 3in this cat-back gives the V8 a generous rear path — the size you reach for once an engine is moving real volumes of gas and you want the back half of the system to stop being the bottleneck. It runs as a single (not dual) cat-back, so the upsize sits in the pipe diameter rather than splitting into twin exits. That keeps the packaging simple under the VU–VZ ute tray while still opening the run from the cat rearward.
How does the muffler and tailpipe shape the note?
This build finishes through a chambered muffler and a tailpipe rather than running straight through. A chambered muffler quietens by reflecting and absorbing sound inside the body, so it tempers the freer 3in flow into a note that stays civil for a ute you actually drive every day. It sits at the balanced end of the scale — fuller and freer-breathing than the factory rear section, but not a straight-through bark.
Will it suit my VU, VY or VZ ute?
It's listed to fit the Holden Commodore V8 ute across the VU, VY and VZ series. That's a body-and-engine specific run — the ute floorpan and hanger points differ from the sedan and wagon — so send your exact series and build and the workshop will confirm the cat-back matches before it goes on the hoist.
What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?
Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits cat-back systems like the SSMKHN0252 in-house across the Illawarra. We mount the muffler and tailpipe to the factory hangers, check tray and chassis clearance on your ute, and confirm the fitment against your build. The listed supplier RRP is AUD 2,390.89; ask us about availability as it can be a special-order item.
