Non EFI, sort of.

[Rich M]

In the UK we have Samcosport hoses - they are a fabric reinforced silicone
rubber layup and specifically aimed at turbo boost and coolant hoses,
resistant to both pressure and vacuum. They range in size from about 2"
upwards and come in pre-formed shapes to suit specific application fitment
and also various bends, straights and reducers.
www.samcosport.com for more info.
Hope this may help
Cheers
Rich
