Hi guys, I'm looking at getting a charge pipe for my F56, and I wanted to see what people's thoughts were on the different ones available. There's one from Forge, ECS Tuning, and FTP Motorsport that I'm seeing. The only difference I see between the 3 is that the Forge one is a one piece pipe, while the others are 2 pieces. Is the Forge one worth the extra 100+ dollars over the other two? Thanks for the input!

 

The two piece pipe might be slightly easier to install, but I would believe the perceived performance of all versions to be about the same. Those pipes aren’t really removing any restrictions in the intake, so you’re likely to only get some extra noises coming from the engine.

 

We only use and install the Forge in our shop as they are top notch.

@Giantsfan107, I had this same question and chose to purchase Forge from @WayMotorWorks.

Forge’s build quality is amazing and they have excellent customer service/support. I wanted that OEM+ feel and with a single pipe it has that

I wrote a post on this forum about the hard pipe:

Thanks again @WayMotorWorks for the fast shipping and great price

I hope this helps and please update us,

I know for a fact that the FTP intake hard pipe has a smaller diameter than the Forge.
Forge diameter size is closer to the size of the MAF tube.
Being a 1 piece did not make it harder to install, it was removing the OEM one that was a pain.
I went with Forge, the quality is evident when you see it.

Way had it in stock, good price, and shipped immediately.

 

I went FTP, love it. Install was a few minutes.
