Yeah, information on this is scarce, i have the 125i too, it's hard to find any information on exactly what the differences are between the 130 and 125 engines. There must be some hardware differences.. am not sure what would be necessary to get the extra juice out of it.

I find the 125i's got loads of torque from the very start of the rev range, does the 130 feel the same i wonder? sometimes you lose bottom end if you try to get the engine developing more power up high, which would reduce driveability imo.. also is the 130i power delivery as smooth as the 125i?

I'd be quite interested to have a cruise in a 130i to see the difference in the engines.

How's the car run with exhaust and decat?
