325i cat converter on a 325e?

[highlandarx]

if you look at schneller's website... http://machschnell.com/e30-325e.html it talks about bang for your buck performance purchases....basically bolt on upgrades. under things to do for the 325e....it says to put on a 325i catalytic converter and a 325i stromung exhaust......but if u look at the diagrams of the 325i catalytic converter and the 325 e one.....they're completely different...i dont thinke the 325i one would fit....so what are they talking about?........so even if i gotta 325e cat convertr is it safe/possible to put a 325i performance exhaust system on a 325e?....if not whats a good performance exhaust system for a 325e....by a reputable company like remus exhaust or something.....not the B&B Tri-Flo one by Bavauto please....


thank you

They must mean the entire midpipe. The 325i midpipe will bolt up to your manifolds and then you can mount a 325i exhaust. Even then you wont see any real world performance gains, just a different sound and look.

If i remember correctly the cat section runs all the way to the manifolds.
I havn't had a stock exhaust in quite some time so I am y be off.
