3″ Turbo Back Exhaust – Landcruiser 79 Series VDJ79 4.5L Dual Cab Ute (2007-16)

Description

Overview

The 3″ Turbo Back Exhaust – LandCruiser 79 Series VDJ79 4.5L Dual Cab Ute (2007–16) is designed for maximum performance and durability. Engineered by King Brown / Pacemaker, this system replaces the entire factory exhaust from the turbo outlet to the tailpipe, delivering lower exhaust gas temperatures, quicker turbo response, and an aggressive yet controlled note. Perfect for touring, towing, or off-road setups, it’s a proven upgrade for Toyota’s 4.5L V8 diesel platform.

Manufactured with precision-mandrel bends and high-flow components, this 3-inch system dramatically reduces back pressure and optimizes exhaust scavenging. Whether you’re chasing power gains or smoother towing performance, this setup provides an ideal balance between performance, sound and reliability.
