Erik,

the Michelin man hose is most prone to failure becasue oil
can collect in the hose and rot it.

If you want just that hose I have an extra.
If you are running any more than stock boost (ie chipped) than you
definitely want to replace all the hoses.

FYI with aftermarket hoses you need stronger clamps
