The Manta Performance Exhaust Kit is purpose-built for the Toyota Land Cruiser VDJ78 Series 4.5L V8 Troopy (2007–2016, pre-DPF). This system replaces the restrictive factory exhaust with a turbo back design, allowing the 1VD V8 turbo diesel to expel gases more efficiently. The result is a more responsive, robust driving experience—especially valuable for owners who demand more from their Land Cruiser in off-road, touring, or heavy-duty settings.
Factory exhaust systems on the VDJ78 Troopy are known to limit engine output, causing noticeable turbo lag and muted throttle response. For those towing, carrying heavy loads, or tackling remote tracks, this can mean sluggish acceleration and reduced efficiency. The Manta kit addresses these issues by reducing back pressure and improving exhaust flow, helping your Land Cruiser respond faster and operate more efficiently. Actual performance improvements will vary depending on vehicle condition and configuration.
This exhaust kit is ideal for:
By unlocking the engine’s potential, the Manta system supports both recreational and work-focused Land Cruisers, making it a practical upgrade for those who rely on their vehicle in demanding environments.
Note: Performance improvements such as power gains or fuel savings are typical but not guaranteed. Actual results depend on vehicle condition, configuration, and driving style.
The Manta exhaust kit is manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, ensuring long-term resilience against corrosion and harsh environments. Buyers can choose from several pipe diameters and sound configurations to suit their build—whether prioritising maximum flow, a particular exhaust note, or compliance with local regulations. Some configurations omit the catalytic converter for off-road use only; these are not road legal in most regions.
This kit is designed for direct fitment to the VDJ78 Series 4.5L V8 Troopy (2007–2016, pre-DPF). Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct fit and performance. Important: Turbo back systems without catalytic converters are intended for off-road use only and may not be legal for road use in your area. Always check local regulations before purchasing or installing this product.
