I've taken to using the Mekanism mechanical pipes for most of my liquid piping at this point. Quite a bit faster and without the requirement for an engine. Items, though... I can't really get into the Logistical Transporters. They just don't seem to work well with larger pipe networks, and I can make BC pipes behave the way I want them to.
I wish that the BC Teleport Pipes Addon mod was in. I know they are still being maintained, but you never see them in any pack since tekkit.
