The MPI Automotive SSMKTY0005 keeps the catalytic converter and runs a compact hotdog for the Toyota Landcruiser VDJ79 V8 ute. Pairing a straight-through hotdog with the converter retained is what defines this ute build.

What does a hotdog with the cat retained give you?

This build keeps its catalytic converter and runs a hotdog at the rear. A hotdog is a compact straight-through resonator — it flows freely and lets a harder note through than a chambered muffler, while the retained converter keeps the emissions hardware in the system. The result is a freer-flowing character than a full muffler, with the converter still fitted rather than deleted, packaged for the VDJ79 ute body.

What does retaining the converter mean for legality?

Because the SSMKTY0005 keeps the catalytic converter, it retains the emissions equipment the VDJ79 left the factory with — the part that matters most for compliance on a diesel ute. That sets it apart from the cat-delete VDJ79 builds. Confirm the exact build and any state requirements with the workshop before fitting; listed fitment is verified against your vehicle.

What is the muffler choice here?

Rather than a chambered muffler, this build uses a hotdog — the compact, straight-through option. It suits the VDJ79 V8 ute owner who wants a freer-flowing result than a full muffler while keeping the converter. The ute body sets the routing the system follows under the tray. The supplier does not publish the bore for this listing, so confirm pipe size with the workshop.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Common questions

Does the SSMKTY0005 keep the catalytic converter?
Yes — this is the with-cat build, so the factory catalytic converter stays in place alongside a hotdog.
What is the hotdog?
A compact straight-through resonator — freer-flowing and louder than a chambered muffler.
What pipe size is it?
The supplier does not publish the bore for this listing. Confirm the pipe size for your VDJ79 ute with the workshop before ordering.
