for what its worth if it is a 2.5 it isnt a proper Alpina, more a tweaked by alpina 325 that included

200 produced ... all by sytners. they took the 325i coupe and did the following:-
fitted a re mapped ecu
fitted a stainless alpina exhaust system ( some had a modified manifold and some used the standard unit. )
17" alpina alloys were fitted and the inside of the rear arches were re rolled to allow for larger wheels.
steering wheel and gearknob conversion to alpina parts.
suspension changed to alpina spec except for those cars already fitted with motorsport suspension.
front and rear spoilers.
alpina badging
all together this gave approx 220 bhp.
unfortunately the b2.5 did not take off because once the conversion was done it was more expensive than the popular e36 m3 which gave 285bhp+
sytners produced a spec sheet for each car and you can get a copy by writing to them. this will tell you who carried out the work and when it was done.
