Default Complete Hose Kit

I've got a 2005 WRX STI and whenever the engine comes out, I'd like to replace all the hoses while it's out.

I've seen ancillary hose kits but nothing like a complete hose replacement kit.

I know you can purchase OEM gasket kits, but I've seen no such thing for hoses.

What do people do to replace all the hoses? Just buy each OEM hose? I'm thinking there must be a better/economical way.

The pcv hoses are first to dry out, I just did a full rebuild and just did everything as needed. Flatiron tuning sells pcv hose kits and coolant hose kits. I personally am not a huge fan of the aftermarket hoses. Issues with size, length, and longevity, there’s such little space in the engine bay for hoses OEM seemed like the simple choice. I will say I did splurge and go for the steel braided oil line for bank 1. The factory hardened stainless line can kink up and starve the turbo and the head.

Thanks, I've used OEM hoses in the past and it looks like that's still the way to go. It just get's pricey sometimes =P

Samco makes a large kit. Other than that, you have to buy them singly. You also need a new MAF and new BCS as yours are super old and janky even if you don't realize it. Read https://forums.nasioc.com/forums/sho....php?t=2740715 for more info.

Yeah, if you manhandle them enough to bend them. Steel hardlines don't just "kink up."
