Manta 3in Exhaust - Volkswagen Amarok 2H TDI550 TDI580 3.0L V6 Turbo Diesel 2016-2022

The V6 is the Amarok engine everyone actually wants, and this is the widest set of options Manta build for one. Start at the DPF and you keep every bit of the emissions gear - road legal, warranty intact, and the cheapest way into a system that stays that way. Go back to the dump pipe and you also clear the restriction closest to the turbo, which is where the real gain lives. Either way you choose between a diff dump and an extended tailpipe, so you can keep the system tucked up for touring or run it out the back.

Choosing your system

• DPF Replacement - Without Cat — replaces the DPF section with a straight pipe, no cat. Off-road and competition use only.
• DPF Back - Diff Dump — from the DPF back, exiting in front of the rear diff rather than running past it. Shorter, tucked up out of harm's way, and the cheapest way into the range. Emissions gear untouched.
• DPF Back - Extended Tailpipe — from the DPF back with the pipe carried past the diff to a conventional rear exit. Keeps the fumes further behind you, which is worth having if you tour with a canopy or camper. Emissions gear untouched.
• Dump Pipe Back - Diff Dump — from the turbo dump pipe back, exiting ahead of the rear diff. You get the dump pipe as well as the rear section, so the restriction closest to the turbo goes too.
• Dump Pipe Back - Extended Tailpipe — from the dump pipe back, with the tailpipe carried past the diff to a conventional rear exit. The most complete system in this range.

The DPF replacement options are sold for off-road and competition use. Removing emissions equipment from a road-registered vehicle is not legal in any Australian state. If the ute is registered and driven on the road, choose one of the DPF back or dump pipe back systems, which leave the filter where it is.

Aluminised or stainless

• Stainless Steel — 409 stainless. Worth the jump if you live near the coast, spend time in mud and dust, or do river crossings. It will comfortably outlast the ute.
• Aluminised Steel — Manta's standard. Aluminium-silicon coated steel, pressed and mandrel-bent the same as the stainless, and it will give you years of service in normal conditions. Best value of the two.

How loud do you want it

• Quiet — the most muffling Manta offers. Deeper and cleaner than factory, but still civil on a long highway run.
• Medium — a resonator in place of one of the mufflers. More note when you get into it, without the drone that ruins a road trip.
• Loud — straight through. The most aggressive of the three, and you will hear it at cruise.

Fitment

Volkswagen Amarok 2H/TDI550/TDI580, 3.0L V6 TDI, 2016 to 2022. Bolts to the factory mounting points and uses the standard hangers — no cutting or welding.

3in pipe throughout, and every bend is mandrel-formed. A mandrel bend holds its full diameter around the corner instead of crushing down the way press-bent tube does, which is the whole point of fitting a bigger system in the first place.
