E90 Performance exhaust on E92

strokemycocktus · 07-01-2016, 11:34 AM

Hi
I have an opportunity to buy a used Performance exhaust in perfect condition for good money, however it is meant for the E90/91 model. I have read some stuff and most people say that the E90 and E92 mufflers are identical considering hangers and fitment, the only difference is the exhaust pipes being ~1 inch longer in E92 - this should be easy to correct in any muffler workshop I guess.
There is just one thing that bugs me - when I check any store with brand new parts, the PE for any 325i comes only for auto transmission (here for example: http://www.salesafter.eu/product_inf...n52n-n53-.html ). Does the gearbox really make a difference here? I'd like to get this exhaust for my E92 325i with a manual gearbox, but I am not sure whether it will fit properly without some big modding.
Thanks for help!

Thanks, avocet

Any info on auto/manual transmission differences?
Could it be even possible that same cars with different transmissions had different mufflers?
