Yeah, the 316 and 318's are 8v, its the 318is thats the 16v, early ones are 1.8 and later are the 1.9 as used in the e46.

id have thought the exhaust will fit all the way upto the downpipe, this is where i think you could have problems. If the Exhaust manifold is the same fixing and same loction then it will obviously fit. or is it a cat back system???? the best thing to do is check something like a Bosal catalogue online and check part numbers etc

http://www.bosalna.com/index.php?mod=catalog - For the 318 i

http://www.bosalna.com/index.php?mod=catalog - For the 318 is

So as you can see they are the very same.

Hope this helps

Looks like its just cat back system so i should think so, try checking if the two models use the same cat.

318

Im sure it will fit mate as said before, here is the catalogue image and it lists the 318i and 318is as the very same
looks like it replaces the two rear silencers. If its cheap get it bought and try it, If it dont fit sell it on
