how many hoses are there for boost?

[robert weinberg]

right, and the question was what makes a complete kit? the venair had two hoses, the lower and the Michelin man - the samco had a 4 hose kit. so, i was confused as to how many boost hoses there really were, and which were subject to failure from increased boost.

sounds like the lower and the michelin are the only ones prone to failure. the other two are fine as is (provided the stockers are in good condition).
