E90 330i Performance Exhaust

K9ANY · 06-29-2014, 06:03 PM

Hi,

Ive purchased a 06 330i m sport and am looking to get a BMW performance exhaust. Ive looked at a few sites and its a bit confusing as some sites list it as being a middle section and backbox, but some list it as just the rear backbox?

Looking at the price I was thinking it must include a replacement mid section?

Anyone got one of these? and is it a different part number for Pre LCI car like mine and Post LCI cars?

Also does anyone know how many CATS my car has and where they are located in the exhaust system?

Thanks

In the States, where the N52 engine is used (indirect injection) the PE consists of the rear and middle sections. In Europe (and the UK) you get back box only, because the DI N53 engine has sensors well back down the exhaust, so only the very back section is replaced.

But do not fear, the sound is still awesome - go for it!

On 335i the e90 has the mid section where the e92 doesn't. Could be similar here..
