Frequently Asked Questions

Is the outback exhaust specifically designed for the DTS turbo upgrade?

Yes, the outback exhaust is specifically engineered for 60 Series Landcruisers with the DTS turbo upgrade. The 3" diameter and optimized flow characteristics are designed to handle the increased boost and exhaust flow from the DTS turbo, ensuring you get maximum performance gains from your turbo upgrade investment on your classic Cruiser.

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 2-4 hours. We include detailed instructions with 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.

Will the outback exhaust be too loud for long-distance touring?

No. Despite the increased flow capacity, our exhaust systems are designed to deliver a deep, refined tone without excessive cabin noise. You'll hear a more aggressive note under boost and acceleration - befitting your upgraded classic Landcruiser - but it remains comfortable for long-distance touring and daily driving.

What does the 5-year warranty cover?

The outback exhaust 5-year warranty covers manufacturing defects and material failures under normal use, including with turbo upgrades. 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.

How does this help with EGT management on my DTS turbo?

The 3" mandrel-bent design significantly reduces backpressure, allowing exhaust gases to exit more efficiently. This results in substantially lower exhaust gas temperatures - typically 80-120°C cooler under load. Lower EGTs mean your classic engine runs cooler, safer, and more efficiently, which is especially important with the increased boost from your DTS turbo upgrade and critical for preserving these heritage engines.

Do you ship Australia-wide?

Yes, Outback Exhausts offer nationwide delivery across Australia. For remote areas or international shipping, please contact us for a freight quote. Most metro areas receive delivery within 3-5 business days.

Will the outback exhaust help with towing performance?

Yes, dramatically. Combined with your DTS turbo upgrade, the improved exhaust flow reduces backpressure and significantly lowers EGTs, allowing your classic 12H-T engine to work more efficiently under heavy load. Customers regularly report exceptional hill-climbing ability, reduced gear changes when towing, and much more confidence when pulling trailers - especially important given the age of these engines.

Will this work with my 62 Series?

The 62 Series has different chassis dimensions and exhaust routing compared to the 60 Series wagon. Please contact us to confirm fitment for your specific 62 Series model, as it may require a different exhaust system.
