Datapoint: BPV vacuum line

[CL Wong]

Just a quick datapoint.  I replaced my BPV vacuum line
3.5 years ago.  Took a look at it yesterday for kicks
and found the rubber lines over the turbo had dried to
hard brittle bits that snapped with just a little
pressure.

Re-route this vacuum line around the outside of the
airbox when you replace yours.

I used generic unbraided rubber vacuum/windshield
washer tubing because it was readily available ($3 / 6
ft).  Hopefully the thicker tube walls will improve
longevity.
