OK -- mine was closer to $30 -- I had to buy 1' lengths in all the hoses and
I had to buy two adapter hoses for the IC-side outlet because the adapter
hose wasn't thick enough (2-1/4 and 2-1/2), but now I have enough for
another set. I'm running stock boost (so far), but the hose looks plenty
sturdy. Bonus was that I could buy it on a weekend when I realized my hose
was blown. Labor was a bit of a hassle, but way under an hour (even in
partial darkness). Three weeks and going strong. I'll keep the list posted
on how it holds up.

Thanks Steve for a great tip!
