Unfortunately the website owners lay the rules that makes impossible for a small operation like what Jess was doing. He is not a large scale commercial business where he can pay the exorbitant prices to become a vendor.

At least his pipes don't swell up under heat and pressure. Oh that's another guy selling stuff on the site. Why not ban him too???

I've heard there's another fabricator doing something like this. What's that fabricator's price point? I've also heard that the other fab's work is quite good.

Fabricator needs to put their money where there mouth is. Jess' pipe has been tried and proven and priced substantially lower. Has anybody seen any hard evidence to justify this product as being better and commanding a higher price? i.e. pictures of fitment, dyno results or bench flow tests to show that it flows better than Jess' pipe.

+1 For Team Jess

I have no ties to either fabricator. I am just happy that talented people are fabricating quality parts for our niche market!

Here are a couple installed pics from his IG account and also a SCR delete strait pipe he also makes.

+10000

Plus without Axel we wouldn't have had that pipe.

Pipe looks nice. However, I always wondered why build a pipe with a differential pressure sensor feed and with a low pressure EGR feed (in a case of an X5) when a proper tune should take care of those items and they are no longer needed.

I think the fabricator may have a Bung Hole fetish...

joe_planet · 04-23-2015, 11:06 AM

way better than the garbage rsworx put out, those didnt even fit right for some people.

either way you go jess or these guys you'll get a top notch product. i'd personally go with jess's pipe if i still had my 335d.

Puerto Rican 335d · 04-23-2015, 11:58 AM

Moose I assisted in some info as to where to locate the bung holes on the pipe, I believe Tdi and iaknown had more participation on this
