- 76mm stainless-steel tail pipe

Improved Exhaust Flow
The DeGraaf system is designed to optimise exhaust gas flow throughout the engine’s rev range.
The larger 76mm rear sections provide a free-flowing exhaust configuration while the 63mm front section is specifically designed for the Hilux GD6 application.
DeGraaf states that its Hilux GD6 performance exhaust can provide potential benefits including power, torque, fuel efficiency, throttle response, reduced turbo lag and lower exhaust gas temperatures, with lower EGTs being particularly beneficial when towing.
Actual results will depend on the individual vehicle and its complete specification.
Ideal for Towing & Touring
The Hilux GD6 is often used for towing trailers, caravans, boats and off-road equipment.
Improved exhaust flow can complement a Hilux that regularly operates under heavier loads, while the lower exhaust-temperature potential promoted by DeGraaf can be beneficial for vehicles used for towing.
The exhaust is also an excellent upgrade for touring and overlanding builds equipped with:
- Bull bars
- Suspension upgrades
- Larger tyres
- Canopies
- Roof racks
- Drawer systems
- Long-range fuel tanks
- Snorkels
- Recovery equipment
- Towing accessories
