It should work with the n26 because you're only replacing the mufflers.

Does the M exhaust for 328i coupe also fit the sedan? I'm assuming so. Anyone know?

2012-2013 328i coupes are e9x and are not f30s so they won't fit.

Tax treatment of the two vehicles is markedly different Down Under due to fuel consumption. I had an N54 engined 135i previously, and while it was ballistic after I tuned it I didn't need that many killer wasps for the price difference.

So for me, fully loaded 328i was 80% of the price of a base 335i.

The change lets me fly to Canada to go skiing in Fernie and visit family in China and Amsterdam

Got the performance exhaust installed on my 328i today! Beautiful sound to the ears!

Took my gf for a ride, but didn't really speak to her because I was too busy enjoying the music of the exhaust.

Do you guys think the F30 335i M performance exhaust can fit the F30 328i? Have any of you tried this?

chugster,

Mate, does your exhaust comes with the electronic valve on one of the outlets?
I also noticed also there are two versions of the tail pipes, one with a thicker sidewall and one with a thin sidewall (like all previous M-performance exhaust).

Any idea?
Cheers

Also, does anyone know if the exhaust gets louder when it breaks in? It's pretty quiet right now...I hear it the most when starting the car up, might have to do with the 8AT transmission

Thanks! Also, does anyone know how to get it to crackle? I feel like it only does it in certain situations. Like do you have to rev the engine slowly and then let go, or blip the throttle fast and then let go, or is it a combination of the two...I've only noticed it when revving in place in neutral....and not even every time. I have an automatic by the way.

usually when you are in 1st gear and let the revs drops is when that happens. Also when u downshift it also happens.
