Project Gamma Charge Pipes and J Pipe, anybody running them?

Hello everyone, I've been looking around for some charge pipes to replace my current SSR Charge Pipes (fitment was not so great). I've been looking at some Silicone Charge Pipes out there and came across the Project Gamma Charge Pipes and J pipe. Looks like a great deal for $350 for both included. Anybody running these? https://shopprojectgamma.com/collect...5-charge-pipes

I don't know anyone running them on an F8X, but PG is in Houston and my friend has had them on his M5 for over a year and loves them. I've seen the fit/finish and they look good to me....for what that's worth anyway.

Yeah I wasn't really able to put the engine cover back on. Also one of the Charge Pipes came scuffed and Customer Service was awful with them. I'll sell them on this forum and point my interest towards some Silicone Charge Pipes since fitment and thermal conductivity is much better with that material

I have spoke to Project Gamma before and they were really cool about me asking some questions on their Front Mount Intake for the F8X. I've also only really heard good things about them and haven't seen any quality control issues or any other issues coming from them. I have spoke to many people who have purchased their Front Mount Intakes for their F8X and all the people that I have talked to have had nothing but great things to say. Seems like a really solid company who has a good following on social media. As far as the Charge Pipes go, I haven't seen anybody run them on our cars. They look very similar to other Silicone Charge Pipes but what's nice is they come with a J Pipe too. I'm curious if you can get colored Charge Pipes.
