The best vacuum line kit is from Lindsey Racing. I believe it's cheaper than the ones on ebay and is just as good if not better quality than them.

Yeah, I have the lindsey kit. Its all the small line but it comes with numerous metal T's to replace all the plastic factory ones. It looks awsome and worked real well. My old line fell apart when I tried to undo it. Silicone hose is silicone hose, but the metal T's are truly awsome. just my .025

I bought the lindsey ones as well. They could be a little thicker...... they tend to want to split but overall good stuff.

You can find vacuum hoses at your local parts store for cheap by the way.....

(If you are running a turbo don't even think of using those vacuum lines as a boost signal line)

why not? Lindsey's kit says it is for 944/951. They also use the same silicone line with their boost controllers.
