Default Vacuum Lines Question/Reccomendations
I'm going to be installing my PFAB ELT Manifold, Tial 44mm V-Band Wastegate, and Tial 50mm BOV.

When I do get around to installing those parts, I need some recommendations on sizing for the vaccum lines, type of lines, and routing of said lines

I keep reading up about how Regular vacuum hose works just fine, and SS Lines are better and Pushloc Lines are the best thing for vacuum

Can anyone point me in the right direction for vacuum lines and what size they should be.

I would rank them (in descending order): SS lines > Pushloc > rubber lines. I'm using -3AN (~3/16") stainless lines/fittings. What is your budget (for the lines, specifically)?

I doubt you'll find anywhere cheaper than Jegs. And they offer free S&H.
