Vacuum Hose Kit Prices

Anyone know if there is cheaper hose kits or silicone hose retailers that are a little cheaper?

Here is one from rx7store.net http://www.rx7store.net/product_p/hosetechblack.htm

I plan on doing the hose job next week and plan on getting hoses soon. Input would be appreciated. Thanks

I use hosetechniques.com - their hose can't be beat.

Read my thread about FD vacuum hose, this will cover many of your questions -

The rx7store kit is the HoseTechniques kit. You can go through directly through HT's site but it looks like they're just a bit higher.

Or you can piece a kit together. This is what you'll need 40’ of 3.5mm, 15’ of 4.0mm, 16’ of 6.0mm, 4’ of 8.0mm. Ordered from boostcontoller.com it's about 90$.

Too bad it is so hard to get VITON hoses now. That's what I used, but the place I got them from (High Temp Silicone) that offered the RX7 kit doesn't do so anymore.

Yeah I think HTS just did one run of the material.

I've now worked with both the black silicone from Baker Precision and the HTS Viton. Knowing what I know now I'd probably go with black silicone. Easier to work with, cheaper, and still extremely durable.
