Built around a compact hotdog resonator, the Redback STR245HD is a 2.5in centre exhaust assembly listed to fit the Ford Falcon BA/BF Sedan. The hotdog is a straight-through tuning section, so it cleans up the centre run without choking flow the way a full chambered box would.

What does a hotdog centre section do?

A hotdog is a short, straight-through resonator — a perforated core wrapped in absorptive packing rather than a baffled chamber. Sitting in the centre of the Falcon's run, the STR245HD takes the edge off resonance and drone while letting gas pass largely unobstructed, so it tidies the mid-section note instead of muffling the whole car. At 2.5in it matches a moderate, largely standard Falcon six rather than a big-bore build.

Where does it sit in the BA/BF system?

This is a centre assembly, not a full system: it replaces the mid-pipe and resonator span, leaving your existing front and rear sections in place. That makes it a sensible way to refresh a tired or rusted-out centre on a BA or BF Sedan without committing to a complete cat-back. It pairs with the factory rear muffler to keep the car civil.

Will it suit my Falcon BA/BF Sedan?

It's listed to fit the Ford Falcon BA and BF Sedan; with the cab body and 2.5in sizing it's aimed at the sedan rather than the ute or wagon. Send your exact build to the workshop so we can confirm the centre-section length and hanger positions before ordering.

What does fitting involve at our Illawarra workshop?

Oak Flats Muffler Men supplies and fits the STR245HD in-house across the Illawarra. A centre assembly swap is straightforward on a hoist — we check the joints to your existing front and rear pipes, set the hanger rubbers, and confirm clearance to the floor and tunnel before you drive away.

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

Common questions

Is the STR245HD a full exhaust or just the centre?
Just the centre assembly. It replaces the mid-pipe and hotdog resonator section on the Falcon BA/BF Sedan and joins to your existing front and rear pipes.
Will the hotdog make it loud?
A hotdog is a straight-through resonator that cuts drone rather than adding volume, so on its own it stays fairly civil. We can't quote a sound level, only describe the type.
Does this fit the BA/BF ute or wagon?
It's listed for the BA/BF Sedan. Confirm your body and build with the workshop before ordering.
