Redback 2.5" Centre Exhaust with Muffler.
Category: Mufflers and resonators


The Redback STR245 is a centre exhaust section with an integrated muffler, listed to fit the Ford Falcon BA–BF sedan. It's the mid-section assembly that sits between the front pipe and the rear muffler, so it does the bulk of the quietening in the middle of the car rather than at the tail.
A centre muffler section like this is the middle run of the exhaust — it carries gas rearward from the front of the system and houses a muffler to absorb and reflect sound before it reaches the rear silencer. On a sedan body the routing is shaped to clear the floorpan and rear subframe, which is why a section is built specifically for the BA–BF Falcon sedan rather than a universal pipe. Replacing a centre section is a common job when the original has rusted through or split at a seam.
Swapping a tired centre muffler restores the original gas path and quietens a system that has started to drone or blow at a corroded joint. Because the STR245 is a muffler rather than a straight-through or resonator, it leans toward a subdued note — the chambered design works by absorption and reflection, so it keeps things civil rather than loud. The exact sound the supplier publishes no figures for, and we don't quote any.
It's listed to fit the Ford Falcon BA–BF in sedan form. Falcon ran several engine and trim combinations across that run, so send your build and we'll confirm the centre section matches your car before ordering. Feed data is a starting point, not a guarantee of fit.
Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits the STR245 in-house. A centre section swap means cutting or unbolting the old run, checking the hangers and adjacent joints, and clamping or welding the new piece in true so it doesn't knock on the floor. We'll inspect the front and rear sections at the same time while the car's on the hoist.
