Vacuum hose diameter

Hi does anyone know the size needed for a my00 so I can fit a boost gauge.

Thanks

3 or 4mm will do the trick.

So the 1 mm difference is ok to use either.

Thanks

Is it a direct reading gauge? If so, you'll probably find you'll need to restrict the dia. even more to stop needle flutter. A tie wrap can do the job.
