THERE are many benefits to fitting an aftermarket exhaust system to a 4x4’s turbo-diesel engine, and no obvious negatives that I can think of. Well, that is unless you purchase a cheaply made exhaust kit, which from experience don’t fit well and tend to fall to pieces faster than a freshly built Sydney apartment.
We took no chances and opted for a quality Australian-made King Brown exhaust from the team at Pacemaker Australia. This unit, like many other parts fitted to our 2020 Isuzu D-MAX, is the first unit to roll off the production line. The good people at Pacemaker were able to help us out and built this kit from scratch.
We had the team at Advanced Installation Service in Emu Heights, NSW, fit the kit. They had it whipped out and assembled quick-smart, commenting that everything was included and it fit-up easily the first time around – can’t argue with that.
