I guess we disagree.
Nothing wrong with respectfully disagreeing

i have 100k on mine running 20psi boost, my stock charge pipe did not fail when i changed to an aftermarket one.
When i say weak component, it does not mean every CP will fail the day you add a tune. It means out of the x amount of tuned cars, there is a high ratio of charge pipes failing.

I would also double check with your shop about the point he brought up with flash vs piggy and how it would change any effect on the charge pipe.
