Upgrade ChargePipe for BM Stage1?

cussm3 · 04-15-2021, 01:08 AM

Looking to go BM3 stage 1, have downpipes on order, contemplating upgrading chargepipes as well
Would love to hear some thoughts on whether an upgraded chargepipe is necessary for stage1 or any past experiences with chargepipes cracking etc!

Chargepipe B58 does not crack , or you have to run 800whp

so not needed for stage 1 or stage 2 also

See above.
Spend the money elsewhere (and not on useless, counterproductive sport air-filters!)

No harm from upgrading the charge pipe but its a mandatory upgrade with the stage 1

You meant to write „it's NOT", I suspect...

I have a VRSF downpipe and chargepipe running stage 2. I did it for safety of mind since I'm not a huge fan of plastic and I had the extra cash laying around.
