Try Hoppen or Anderson, they both sell hose kits.

Yes, I had been warned that this may happen after my ECU upgrade.
Unfortunately, getting Samco hoses is not as easy as just buying them
and then getting them installed.
At speed, I heard a hose blow off. The car still ran but lost about 90%
of its power. After dropping the belly pan, the popped of hose was
clearly visible and putting it back on with a new clamp fixed the
problem.
I have several questions:
If the car is driven with the lower hose popped off, does it damage
anything? Engine, cat, etc?
Are there any alternatives to Samco that are readily available?
Thanks in advance.
Chris
