The MPI Automotive SSMKHN0480 is a complete 2.5in cat-back for the Holden VE/VF V8 sedan and wagon, combining hotdog and muffler quietening with chrome-tipped rears. Unlike a single-can change, this is the full cat-back run — centre, tailpipe and rears in one kit.
What does a cat-back cover on the VE/VF V8?
A cat-back replaces the exhaust from behind the catalytic converter rearward — the centre section, the tailpipes and the rear mufflers — while leaving the cat and the engine-side emissions hardware untouched. On the SSMKHN0480 that whole span is built in 2.5in, with a hotdog resonator and a muffler working together to manage the note, finishing in chrome tips at the rear. It's the comprehensive route for a VE or VF V8 owner who wants the entire rear half of the system replaced as a matched set rather than piecing it together.
Why the 2.5in bore and combined hotdog-plus-muffler?
At 2.5in this cat-back is sized for the V8 while staying close to factory packaging — a sensible street bore rather than an oversized one. Running both a hotdog and a muffler gives two-stage control: the hotdog targets the resonant drone at cruise and the muffler handles overall volume, so the system can sound purposeful without booming on the highway. It's listed to fit the Holden VE/VF V8 in sedan and wagon body styles; confirm your exact variant with the workshop.
Is it road legal?
This is a cat-back, so it keeps the factory catalytic converter and the emissions equipment the car left the factory with — the cat-delete off-road rules don't apply here. Noise compliance still depends on the in-service result, so confirm any state requirements with the workshop before fitting.
What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?
Oak Flats Muffler Men fits VE/VF cat-back systems in-house across the Illawarra, hanging the centre and rears, aligning the chrome tips evenly under the bumper, and checking clearances for your body style. The SSMKHN0480 carries a published RRP of $2,675.24; send your build and we'll confirm fitment and book the bay.
Stocked and fitted by Oak Flats Muffler Men, the Illawarra exhaust and 4x4 specialist in Oak Flats, NSW.
