2009 128i : n51 or n52 ?

Hi,
i was just picking some informations on the 3 stage manifold when i learnt that 128i doesn't come necessarily with a n52.
I also read that some US owners who has a 2009 model, has a n51.
What about us in Canada ? mine is a 2009 128i from Ontario. n51 or n52 ?

Canadian 128i have n52 and therefore need a n51/330i/530i/x3/x5/z4 3.0si intake 3 stage DISA manifold

I believe only 2011+ built after a certain build date have an N52. Put your last 7 digits of your vin into here and you'll see.
