    I recently picked up a 2000 328i and I acquired a stock ZHP exhaust. I was curious if it is a direct bolt on or will it require some modification? The reason I ask is because the exhaust is an hour away and so I can't compare it to what I have now. I searched the interwebs but I couldn't find any info. There isn't anything wrong with my current exhaust but the ZHP exhaust sounds nice. If anyone has any insight, feel free to chime in. Oh and here is a pick of the new daily/beater.

      I'd check parts diagrams to see if manifold gaskets or even the manifolds themselves are the same between a standard 328 and 330. I would think its a bolts right on situation but that's just my guess.

        I think on the 328i's the flange that bolts to the exhaust is at a different angle than a 330 or a 325

              Summary:  Unplug the vacuum line going to the exhaust flapper and plug it with a golf tee.

                I'm not sure the 328 has the flapper. Either way, the golf tee mod doesn't make much difference at all.

                  The 328i should have the flapper. It makes a difference at lower rpms but if he's looking for wide open scream then it won't matter.

                    I am going to pick it up this weekend. My friend parted out a ZHP so he has a set of sway bars as well which will be a nice upgrade.

                      Do you know if your 328i has the sport package?

                        I don't think so. It has base model seats but they are heated. I plan on slamming it and buying a ZHP bumper for it so I can be like all the other cool kids.

                          Run straight pipes with glass packs. You'll be the envy of your local auto part store chronies.

                            Reason I ask is that the 328i sport actually had larger front sway bars than the zhp. Just a heads up so your not stepping backwards. Run the vin on bmwarchiv.de

                              Andy's car doesn't have the sport package.
