couplers

bba motorsports has turbonetics ones as well as generic reinforced stuff, don't get straight rubber $hit, it will swell and may bust like a balloon (leaking precious boost!)

The stuff at hampton Rubber is the reinforced silicon type, not cheap shit. I beleive its the same one sold by baker and has held quite well on my car at 18 psi...

Turbo Hoses has probably any size/style of hose that you want and it's fiberglass reinforced silicone. You pay for it, but it'll never fail.
