Default need high quality vacuum hose for turbo

can someone tell me some good brands of vacuum hose that can withstand high heat. i have a turbo in my civic and my existing vacuum lines gets hot, cracks and cause my turbo to not work when air leaks out of them. thanks.

are you using rubber or plastic lines? you could always use the AN/stainless braided as well, if your wallet allows

i am currently using rubber hoses. i have some hoses that my friend gave me and those so far is holding up, but the ones i had are so cheap it cracks within a few weeks of daily driving.

and heheh my wallet does not allow me to go with stainless. i want to stick to plastic or rubber. i am not running with much boost, only 5psi on a t3/t4.
