Silicone Vacuum Hoses
I am going to replace all my small vacuum hoses with silcone ones, what size is needed and what clips should I opt for?

i've 3mm hosing no clips. 3mm gives a nice snug fit and with it being a vacuum it shouldnt need the clips (had mine on a month with no problems) if not just use small tie wraps

i bought 2 metres from an ebay site (think it was bout £3 a metre) you may need 3 metres though as i've bypassed the n249 valve while i was at it.

ebay is the best place for it mate i got 3m of 3mm red for £2.45per metre. Look up seller: 800bhp they got loads of silicone pipes and much cheaper than forge for the same stuff

I think we're all getting to the vac hose splitting stage about now. I used 3m with cable ties and it solved boost loss issues and hilighted the next items to work on!
