Default new mods+vacuum line help

Ok guys I just spent the last of the volvo fund on some goodies. just ordered
-short ram air
-SAS filter
-ECU air duct hose
-complete PCV kit
-phenolic intake manifold spacer
-upper and lower radiator hoses
-both EVAP hoses
-a pollen filther

Getting all this from IPD

So since im going to be pretty much tearing this thing back to bear bones. I thought i would change all the vacuum lines, did some research and I think im just going to use regular rubber. Have been through tons of threads here and mvs and vs. But no one has a straight answer to
-which hose size's
-how much of each
-and can you use standard sizes instead of metric
For a 1998 S70 GLT Turbo
Please help and like always I am greatly apreciative

I was gonna recommend silicone vacuum hoses but you figured that out. Also, go to FCP and pick up a set of silicone intercooler hoses if they're avail for your car.

Good luck and enjoy.

you're welcome. enjoy the ride

also pick up a can of aqua net hair spray to get those hoses on. they'll take you at least 4 hours of muscle to get em on...
