I need about 1m of vacuum hose 3mm from inlet manifold to FPR thus has Tia be able to handle high pressure without collapsing .
My problem is I can only find silicon hose with a 1.5mm thickness wall and this didn't seem appropriate for the application , has anyone got any recommendations or links to such sites that sell the right stuff please.

On closer inspection the stuff I have installed is 3mm silicone vac pipe but can squash it between my thumb and forefinger , the FPR will vary fuel pressure depending on boost pressure so I don't want the pipe to collapse giving a false reading to FPR as this could a drop in fuel pressure and be quite critical

Gauge came with the Fuelab reg, mine was from Lateral Performance, but, I didn't pay for it. 
Alyn @ AS Performance is a Fuelab dealer, give him a ring; 0191 410 3770 or try Mark @ Lateral.
