I realize that Jack stoped making the mspec vacuum reduction kits. Yet I found his diagrams for them. Thanks to someones sigs.

Yet to do the vacuum reduction on a stock setup what size is the oem vacuum lines? Thanks.

Linkage to said diagrams?

No just the stock oem vacuum line sizs

I am pretty sure they are a mix of 6 and 8mm. When I did mine I just brought a couple with me to NAPA and matched them up, and bought a ton of the stuff. Its cheap enough and I randomly need vac line for other stuff.

Sammage the link is in my sig. I am going to rehost them though, apparently rapidshares new security measurements are impossible to get bye. If you need them and can not get through just shot me a PM with your email address.

3.5mm line is that the correct oem vacuum line size?

Struggly · 06-06-2008, 12:48 PM

Pull off hose, measure ID, reattach hose, drive to store, buy.

But yes, 3.5 is good enough. You'll need some larger line for the BOV too, if you want to replace that or want to avoid g-fabbing it.

So 3.5 is the stock size for most of the lines from the wastegates to the lines at the top of the throttle body. What is the oem size for the BOV vacuum lines?

Dude, do you have a ruler? Just go measure it.

Fact of the matter is, you just need line of a diameter that's close enough. This isn't a space station. It's a car.

Don't have the car, I going to go run to the store and buy the vacuum lines and want to make sure I buy the correct ones so when I work on the car tomorrow I have everything taking care of and ready to fix my leaks.

Ah...

I think I usually just buy the next size up from 3.5, whatever it is. 6mm should be good enough. If you end up with line that's a bit to small, just beast it on there. If it's too big, use a zip tie or something for the time being.

Depending on how you route your lines, you can reuse the stock BOV line anyway. I'm still using the stock BOV hose.
