Samco has a silicone hose kit but you can't just get the one hose, comes in a complete kit. Don't waste your money........just buy an aftermarket UICP. I had issues with my OEM IC pipes so I decided to go with ETS and I'm glad I did, never had to worry again with the ETS IC pipes.

Put a clamp in front of the throttle body so it doesn't balloon there. So you will have a clamp that attaches to the throttle body and another one to the right of it. Just tighten it so it's snug, that way the hose doesn't balloon and blow off, it has worked for me.

Thanks. I bought Vibrant clamps so i know the clamps are good.. IDK those clamps look the same. I am going to try my buddies stock hose see if mine is just shot. If all else fails I will have to pay for UICP...

I like ETS stuff. Good quality and fair prices. I'll look them up. Injen is big $$$ as I can only find their ICP kit. All I need is the upper.

Dejon tool makes one that just replaces the upper half of the uicp on the Evo. Make it nice if you are just wanting something to put a different bov on.
