Preventative maintenance (850 turbo hoses)
I was wondering if I could get a breakdown of the hoses I should replace in my 95 850 turbo as part of my preventative maintenance (not including radiator hoses)

Go silicone hoses. Replace everything rubber on the turbo path and all the vacuum lines with silicone hose. Many people have boost issues due to these hoses. The silicone replacements will last a long time and hold up well.

The turbo hose kit is on Ebay:

eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices

Also IPD and FCP carry them. Need to search around for best price.
