The MPI Automotive SSMKHN0281 is the 3in option for the Holden VP/VR/VS Statesman V8, built for the IRS automatic combination and finished with a muffler. The bigger 3in bore is the headline — an open-flowing run paired specifically to the independent rear and the auto driveline.

What does the 3in bore suit?

A 3in system gives the Statesman V8 plenty of room to breathe, which suits a car that's been worked or driven harder up top. A larger bore trades some low-rpm gas velocity for a clearer high-rpm path — an application choice rather than an automatic gain. We publish no flow or power figures and won't quote any.

Why the IRS-and-auto-specific build?

This listing pairs two fitment constraints: the independent rear suspension at the back and the automatic transmission up front. The SSMKHN0281 is bent to clear both, so it threads the IRS cradle and the auto crossmember cleanly. Confirm your rear end and gearbox with the workshop before ordering — both decide whether the run sits.

How is the 3in run silenced?

A muffler in the 3in run keeps the bigger-bore note in check, so the system stays road-liveable rather than raucous. Tube extractors at the head start the run, replacing the restrictive factory cast manifolds — the main breathing limit on these V8s — so the gas leaves the cylinders more cleanly before the 3in pipe carries it back.

How does fitment work in the Illawarra?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits this head-back package in-house across the Illawarra. It's listed to fit the VP/VR/VS Statesman V8 with IRS and auto; bring the car so we can confirm both the rear end and the gearbox before booking the bay.

How is it supplied?

This is an application-specific MPI Automotive package ordered against your confirmed VP/VR/VS Statesman IRS auto, not a shelf system. At an RRP of $3,307.70 the step up to 3in is a deliberate spec call, so we confirm both the rear end and gearbox match the listing before committing the order.

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