What can i use to tie my vacuum hoses on with?

[CupraTgirl]

I have just bought some more vacuum hose to replace all the dodgy worn bits that are around my N75 Valve but am wondering what i can use to clamp it down? I know it may be ok not using anything but i cant risk losing boost again with all the issues i have had!

I doubt cable ties will work as it gets so hot there, they will melt so is there anything else i can use?

cable ties have work fine for me and a lot of others. Just use the small ones that'll fit snuggly on the hose connectors. Maybe use 2 to be doubly sure.

Cable ties! LOL (haven't I seen this post before, lol)

They'll be fine!

I don't think it makes too much difference TBH. It certainly would on the areas which take more of a hammering, though (top of DV etc).
