Okay...In the quest to update and mod my car out I keep finding subtle differences between older pre-1996 E36 cars and newer post-1996 E36 cars. I just posted something about exterior nose panel and grill differences...now I go under my hood of my 318i to replace and buy a new engine cowl...I go to ebay...and what do I find!?

Two very different engine configurations for 318i cars. The 1996 318i seems to have a bigger filter and other funky stuff going on in there when compared to a much simplier 1995 318i detail....anyway look at the pictures. Does anyone know what these differences are? and why? Is one engine more powerful?



The first three pictures are from the 1996 318i model

These final two are from a 1995 318i car
