Enhance Your HDJ78 Landcruiser Troop Carrier with a High-Flow Manta 3" Mandrel Bent Exhaust System
Equipping your HDJ78 Landcruiser troop carrier, powered by the 1HD-FTE 4.2L turbo diesel, with a high-flow Manta 3" mandrel bent exhaust system can significantly enhance its performance. This upgrade is arguably one of the most effective performance modifications you can make to this vehicle. The standard exhaust system, with its restrictive 2” piping, can limit the motor's potential.
By substituting the standard exhaust with a 3" mandrel bent pipe, you can unlock numerous benefits. These include improved low-down torque and responsiveness, reduced turbo lag, lower fuel consumption, and enhanced peak power. Whether you're towing a caravan, off-roading, or driving cross-country, the additional power from a Manta 3" exhaust is indispensable.
With three configurations available, you can customise the noise level to your preference. Keep it close to stock, add a subtle note with the 3" rear pipe, or opt for a loud, truck-like sound with a pronounced turbo whistle.
For an exhaust system that stands the test of time, choose from either stainless steel – carrying a 10-year warranty, or aluminised steel, with a 2-year warranty. The entire system is designed for easy fitment, utilising factory mounting points. This system is also compatible with a HZJ75, providing a Toyota CT26 turbo (the 1HD factory turbo) setup is fitted aftermarket.
The system demonstrated in the video offers a medium noise level.
