I did, however, take my car to service for an oil change a couple days ago and now this happens... |

Fun times! I went to do a spark change, and I gave up after plugs #1 and #2. Reverted back to original. Now I'm not making any boost. Shop is saying codes are showing low pressure for turbo. I wonder if it's a cracked pipe, or what you had AMTF10
Ironically, also happened when I was just doing standard maintenance :P

Do you have stage 1 or 2? I wanna get stage 2 but don’t want lights flashing or blow a turbo or not pass inspection. Also how much are the horsepower gains from a chargepipe

I was told from a supplier VRSF is made in China. Not sure if this is true but if it is there's no difference from the alibaba listing.

How does it attached to the new charge pipe? I'm going to order one today. UPDATE: sensor has screws but the whole flange broke off For anyone wondering, I'm running a BMS intake and catless dp that was recently installed. Haven't had the chance to tune yet so stock power still (goes to show how much that catless dp frees up the turbo in itself).

After looking deeper the sensor does have screws but the flange separates from the pipe. Def worth the upgrade, but for those wondering, man fix will get you by until the new pipe ships.

Interesting where we are having issues with our chargepipes. At the seal on the mount of the TMAP sensor.
I guess we could throw some jb weld or some strong glue around the base of the sensor holder to help keep it strong, ahead of time.

I had the sensor blow off my CP the exact same way. I epoxied it back together and it held for a few months till then I installed the VRSF pipe. I kept the stocker and will still use it for smog inspection.
