Charge pipes thread to end all

Good question! I guess at what point of air volume is needed before a significant rise in pressure happens?
On the charge air side of the system mass airflow will increase with larger turbo setups, but volumetric flow rate will be mostly unchanged unless a higher redline is set, not withstanding improvements in VE. There is some increase in pressure drop at higher density, but not nearly as much as occurs with flow velocity. It doesn't seem that charge pipes are going to limit through put substantially although there may be room for some improvement above the stock setup.

Charge pipes and turbo muffler deletes are a waste of cash on OEM turbochargers on the MK7.
