I've done quite a bit of research and I still don't find the broken pipes... except for with the people using tuning boxes that "fake" the boost to be way too low to what it actually is...

The m235i racing uses the stock pipe... and if you've seen how hard they race those in the cup, then I wonder if it is the tuning boxes that creates the problem you are talking about? How come they can race as hard as they do with with the 235ir's with no failure and you claim it happens all the time? I'd love to be wrong, but it is hard to ignore what I see and suspect that "overboost" is the problem?
