I want to change out my vacuum lines, has anyone used this one before?

That's just stock. Get platinum cured silicone.

You probably need 20' of 3.5mm

The hardest part about this project will be the front turbo.

The best advice I can give you is to use an exacto knife or a box knife to cut the lines vertically at the connection points.

The lines attached to the actuators on the turbos, you can just pull them off. They are attached to metal nipples.

Take out the vacuum canisters and move the coolant reservoir out of the way. This will give you access, although it is tight, to the front turbo's actuator.

no need to touch the reservoir. just remove the right side canister and the top solenoid nut while only loosening the bottom nut. that will allow you to pull it to the side and slide up to remove solenoid and give you enough room to get your arm in the space to get to the front turbo nipple.
