I know this has been discussed a while back , but I'm in the process of replacing all the usual hoses (now suffering from the dreaded overboost problems !!) and I'm struggling to find a supplier of the 8mm reinforced stuff for the wg to wgfv etc. is "normal" 8mm samco vacuum hose suitable ??, I can't seem to find this sort of hose at sfs or merlin anymore !!!!
Tried 8mm Samco for the WG to wastegate solenoid hose, it worked for a while but after 3-4 months the WG end cracked. Too hot I guess, it was spec'ed for 180C, maybe the WG connection was a little hotter.

Try this site and go to Jetwash hose 120 bar ok for you?
having trouble tracking this down again,originally sourced the black reinforced sfs 8mm hose from Lee..., can't even find the sfs website recently , anybody found a recent reliable source for the wg -> wgfv and turbo -> wgfv hose/s
Think i used a bit of fuel hose in the end, just had it in the workshop.
