Running a compact hotdog resonator instead of a full muffler, the MPI Automotive SSMKHN0442 is built for the long-wheelbase Holden Colorado RC 3.0L. It keeps the factory catalytic converter, so the emissions hardware stays in place while the hotdog handles the tuning.
What does the hotdog resonator do here?
A hotdog is a short, straight-through resonator — gas passes through a perforated core wrapped in absorptive packing rather than bouncing through chambers. On the SSMKHN0442 that means it trims a specific frequency band to take the edge off diesel drone without choking flow or adding the bulk of a big chambered muffler. It suits an owner who wants the RC quieter on the highway but doesn't want the muting of a full silencer.
Why the with-cat build?
This SKU retains the catalytic converter, which is the piece that matters for emissions compliance on a diesel ute. Keeping the cat in place means the Colorado holds the emissions equipment it left the factory with, so the change is to the silencing rather than to the cat itself. That's the usual choice for a daily-driven, registered RC.
Will it suit my long-wheelbase Colorado RC?
It's listed to fit the long-wheelbase Holden Colorado RC with the 3.0L engine. The LWB routing is longer than the short-wheelbase version, so confirm your exact body and build with the workshop before ordering — feed data is a starting point, not a guarantee of fit.
What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?
Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits this MPI hotdog section in-house. We check hanger positions and clearance to the tray and chassis on your LWB Colorado, then book the bay once the build is confirmed. As an MPI part it can be brought in on special order if it isn't on the shelf.
Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
Common questions
- Is the SSMKHN0442 road legal?
- It keeps the factory catalytic converter, so the emissions hardware stays in place. Confirm your exact build and any state requirements with the workshop before fitting.
- What's the difference between a hotdog and a muffler on this Colorado?
- The hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator that cuts drone while flowing freely; a full muffler is larger and quietens more. This SKU uses the hotdog.
- Does it fit the short-wheelbase RC?
- This part is listed for the long-wheelbase Colorado RC 3.0L. The workshop can confirm the right section for a short-wheelbase build.
