FTP Charge Pipe

I'm in the market for a charge pipe, prior to my tune. I found a good deal on the FTP pipe but am not a fan of the giant FTP/Made in Taiwan logos.

The seller tells me they are stickers and removable. Is there anyone currently with this pipe that can confirm?

Hard telling from the pic. You might be able to rip that off.

Or you could just go with another brand like ECS tuning. They have a charge pipe and turbo outlet boost pipe. No made in Taiwan stickers.

FTP charge pipe owner. The sticker can come off with a little time and a trim tool to help pry.

The charge pipe is from FTP; ECS is a vendor just like us.

If the charge pipe fits the M340, it will fit the M440.
It's the same setup.

Does anyone know how much boost a stock charge pipe can withstand?

Cant say for sure, but compared to the older chassis, the new charge pipe is a lot more reliable.
