i own a 1986 325. no e/i.is. it has a rev limit of 4500 and gets excelent gas milage. i bought a chip that got my rev up to 5200. and an intake that added 2-5 hp. the chip added 25 hp. im about to convert the exhaust to a performace exuast that bults on to the cat and a muffler that bolts on also. the pipes are not split like the i's but not much of a difference. maybe a few hp. although i whent up against an ix and tied. so the e can stil hold the good gas milage with the mods of an i. so you end up with alot of torque plus just as much hp as an i/is/ix what ever. although there are defenetly less mods availible for the 325/e. and with the performance chip you have to run it on premiem. i only got my bmw for
1500. so i dont give a shit. but it is defenetly not an e though. wich seems strange to me.- Vote on answer
