Default Vacuum line size.

Does it matter if I have some 1/8th vacuum lines, and some 3/8ths all tapping off
a 1/8th off the FPR?

the barbs on my BOV and wastegate are all 1/4 barbs..

The BOV needs 3/16" minimum to operate properly. The run should be as short as possible to allow the BOV to react quickly to the pressure change.

The wastegate can have 1/8" but will work better the bigger you go.
