Does anyone here have experience with the Samco Vacuum Hoses? They are on the upper end of the price spectrum but Samco is usually known for their quality. The only other down side is I can only find them in 10ft lengths. How do they compare to the other hoses out there? Are they worth the premium?
Thanks!

 

Yes they are worth it, compared to rubber they wear much slower and hold onto fittings much better.

Where are you getting it from?

Scorke

 

The package says silicone reinforced. I recommend Viton over silicone in an engine bay. Stands up better to petroleum products. McMaster-Carr has any length/diameter that you could want.

 

i think it means it's silicone thats reinforced. not a hose thats reinforced with silicone

Viton is like 10x the cost of silicone, its crazy $$$

 

What standard size vacuum hose is recommended for an Evo IX (3mm x 2mm, 4mm x 2mm, 5mm x 2.5mm, etc)

 

Where did you get this? I need some

 

If you know the diameter and length you want, this is where I get mine from for cheap for all my turbo cars -

Thanks! What sizes do I need to redo ALL of the under-the-hood vacuum lines? 4mm and 6mm?
