I measured the O.D. of the 128i midpipes at right around 2 1/4" (erring low) and the seller measured the I.D. of the 135i Y-Pipe at right around 2 1/4" (erring high) as well. On paper, it should work, but I know that there are way more variables and too little information than necessary to confirm it. This would make this (imo) fantastic-sounding combo a bolt-on and super easy affair...
mine if I can recall correctly was 2 and 1/4 when I had mine straight piped. Should bolt up just fine, if not some creative welding should do the trick. If you want crazy backfires and burbles, go secondary cat delete as well!
