Someone on the forum installed the 235 MPE on his 228. He stated it sounds the same as the 328 version. Can't verify but that's what he said. It's probably just a cosmetic choice. I was on the fence to go that route but I got a good deal on a used 328mpe.

$650

328/235 MPE are both around $850 on eBay. Keep an eye on the 3 series forum for used ones.

Just had mine installed yesterday and spent the whole afternoon and evening driving it and could not get enough of it. Its PERFECT. Absolutely AMAZING with its pops and burbles and the BANGS on the upshifts, and exactly what I wanted. I will be posting a video soon.

M235 muffler on 228i

Installed an M235 muffler(used $250 with less than 2000 mile on it) on my 2014 228i m sport . Replaced lower valance with M235 valance (new aprox $140). Cut off old muffler and welded new muffler on. M muffler inlet pipe was a little larger so it sleeved on existing pipe and welded fine.

Sorry for the up, has anyone tried this on his 230i (B46)?
I am sorrounding the idea of adapting a 328i/330i exhaust for my 230i (two tails on the left).

Thanks in advance!

I have came up with a solution that has worked alot better then i was expecting. i have installed a F30 328I M Performance Exhaust on my 228i and it fits almost perfectly. Just some small modification had to be done to make it fit OEM. I have attached some pictures so you can see how it looks.

The part number I used was: 18302293771 F30 328I

I hope this helps out some people on here!
