Frequently Asked Questions

What does DPF-back mean?

DPF-back means the exhaust system starts after the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) and runs to the tailpipe. This configuration retains your factory DPF for full emissions compliance while replacing the restrictive factory exhaust downstream of the DPF. You get significant performance gains while maintaining your vehicle's emissions equipment and factory warranty protection.

How difficult is the installation of the outback exhausts system?

The outback exhaust is a bolt-on system designed for straightforward installation. Most mechanically-inclined owners can install it with basic hand tools in 1-3 hours. We include all necessary hardware and gaskets. Professional installation is recommended if you're not comfortable working under your vehicle or don't have access to a hoist.

What performance gains can I expect from the Outback Exhausts?

You'll notice improved throttle response, better turbo spool, and increased torque throughout the rev range - particularly beneficial when towing caravans or trailers. Most customers report lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs) by 40-70°C under load, which helps with engine longevity, especially when towing in hot conditions. Fuel economy often improves by 5-8% under highway cruising and towing conditions.

Will the outback exhaust be too loud?

No. Our resonated design delivers a deep, refined note without excessive cabin noise. You'll hear a noticeable improvement over stock - a more purposeful note under acceleration - but it remains comfortable for long-distance touring and daily driving. Many customers report less drone than the factory exhaust at highway speeds, making it ideal for family touring.

What does the 5-year warranty cover?

The outback Exhausts 5-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and material failures under normal use. This includes weld integrity, material corrosion, and structural failures. The warranty does not cover damage from accidents, improper installation, modifications, or extreme off-road impacts.

Will the outback exhaust help with DPF regeneration?

Yes. The improved exhaust flow could actually help with DPF regeneration by allowing exhaust gases to exit more efficiently, which can help maintain optimal exhaust temperatures for the regeneration process. Many customers report smoother DPF regeneration cycles after installing this exhaust.

Do you ship Australia-wide?

Yes, Outback Exhausts offer nationwide delivery across Australia. Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your location. For remote areas or international shipping, please contact us for a freight quote. Most metro areas receive delivery within 3-5 business days.

Can I use the outback exhaust for off-road touring?

Absolutely. Our stainless steel construction is specifically chosen for its corrosion resistance in harsh conditions including water crossings, salt air, coastal environments, and muddy terrain. The system is built to handle serious 4x4 touring while maintaining your Prado's emissions compliance.

Will the outback exhaust help with towing performance?

Yes, significantly. The improved exhaust flow reduces backpressure and lowers EGTs, allowing your engine to work more efficiently under load. Customers regularly report better hill-climbing ability, reduced gear changes when towing, and more confidence when pulling caravans or trailers - especially in hot weather or mountainous terrain. This is one of the most popular upgrades for Prado owners who tow regularly.

What's the difference between DPF-back and turbo-back?

A DPF-back system (like this one) starts after the DPF and retains all factory emissions equipment, maintaining full compliance and warranty protection. A turbo-back system replaces everything from the turbo outlet, including the DPF. For modern Prados with emissions equipment, we recommend DPF-back systems to maintain compliance and warranty coverage while still achieving excellent performance gains.

Will the outback exhaust fit the older 3.0L D4D Prado?

No, the outback exhaust is specifically designed for the 2.8L 1GD-FTV engine (June 2015 onwards). The older 3.0L D4D (1KD-FTV) has different exhaust routing and DPF placement. Please search for our Prado 150 Series 3.0L specific exhaust systems or contact us for the correct fitment.
