You know, a while back I asked my local dealer about the factory line and I believe you get it in a roll and cut it to fit as needed. Correct?

You can buy rubber 5/32 vacuum line at your local napa in black for .50 cents a foot. You need about 15 feet at the most. Add in a couple of t connections. Save your money for the main factory lines (2 for ISV, 1 for brake booster, 1 for the OAS with the check valve).

just be aware that you should not use those silicone lines on circuits that control critical processes. IE: waste gate. Been there dont it, grenaded an engine because the line feeding the signal to the waste gate cut thru.
On the WG and fuel circuits I would use good quality rubber hose preferably with some reinforcement like cloth brading or even stainless if you want the expence and the bling.

There will be a complete silicon hose kit for 951's during next spring.
This kit will be made especially for 951's, so it's not the typical style "One-Size-Fits-All" type of kit. This kit will be also available in the USA and they will be sold by a well known company which is also a Rennlist sponsor.
More information will be available in January.

Use rubber line from the auto parts store, not silicone. Factory lines were hard lines, or rubber for the bigger ones.



Quick Reply: Does anyone have buy this vacuum hose kits??
