130i bmw performance exhaust

[quasio]

Hi all,
couldn't really find the answer, but just wondering would a 128i BMW PE fit a 130i?
i.e. Tischers 128i BMWP exhaust?

The part numbers are different, and there's some pictures online seem to be a bit different. but the realoem pics are the same.

i've also noticed some 130i BMWPE still has the vacuum valve flap in it, whereas all the new pics seem to not have this part any longer.
is that valve in the 125i/128i BMWPE?

or should i play it safe and get all the exact 130i E87 parts from the UK? (at a fair higher price )

Thanks in advance.

Ask the guys from the UK to see if the exhaust for the 128 is the same?

I dont think they are the same, Go to www.bmminiparts.com and do a search by model and see if the part numbers match.

Should fit. Just make sure pipe diameter and mounting points are the same. vacuum flap thingo is not necessary by any means
g'luck!

Have a go installing it on mine and I'll let you know how it goes

I'm confident enough that the rear box section on a 128/125/130i will be the same that when i get back from my holiday i will be ordering one from the states.

compare the photo in this thread to the photo on ECStuning.

yeh it looks very similar but i don't think it is:
the 130i one:

and

the 128i one:

veeery similar, the mounting points actually look slightly different, the hose at the end look slightly different angles (hard to see though but maybe it'll meet somewhere and you can just clamp it off), the Tips look stubbier on the 130i version, and it has the valve. (i guess if you're already getting the exhaust this doesnt matter)
