Default Heat shield vacuum line

I just installed PSE but I don’t have the vacuum line that have heat shield on it like the one on the PSE value. Do you have any idea where I can get it. I put the hi heat rubber vacuum line to it hope it can work fine.

OEM vacuum line have heat shield

You can wrap that rubber line in aluminum or gold heat tape. Will work fine if you cant find the OEM style line you are looking for.

Uhh, no.
The vacuum pulled and the heat will cause the line to collapse and/or fail. Porsche used a combination of braided stainless and Tekalan. Correct Part numbers for PSE install below:

991.111.492.00 Vacuum line, 190 mm (steel flexi-pipe) 2 each
900.918.005.40 Tekalan line 1 each (1000mm length)
991.111.491.00 Vacuum line 80mm (steel flexi-pipe) 1 each

Note: The correct tool used to close the clamps that come on the tubing are called Oetiker pliers and are cheap .
