Default catch can lines

Alright, I've been trying to find that thread about what lines to use for the catch can that I'll be placing in between the PCV valve and the manifold but I can't really find anything. I tried using that clear **** from Home Depot. It felt really rigid and stiff and I thought it would work but once I slapped it on, after a few minutes of driving, it collapsed and impeded any air flow through it. So what else can I use? Regular vaccum lines look too flimsy and squish in a lot easier than that other stuff, but I haven't tried it yet. what other lines can I use, what is everone else using in between the manifold and PCV valve? thanks

I made a thread about this a while back and no one could point me in the right direction either. I tried the home depot **** as well, it collapsed and before i knew it i was blowing out white smoke through my exhaust. Im planning on using steel braided lines in the future, its a bit expensive but it will look nice and pretty

Just use regular 3/8" PCV hose. That's what the factory uses and it will work just fine.
