Vacuum hose, question

Hi. I'm looking to replace all my vacuum hoses due to a 30FF code.

My question: Should I go OEM or is there another choice at a similar price that is better? I know if you pay more, you generally get higher quality but I am also concerned of changes to hose diameter. Just go OEM?

Recommendations? Here are the OEM hoses I plan to buy

order 3.5mm inside diameter
This Link is for by the foot, order 14 to 15 feet.
Look up my DIY for the easy way to do the front turbo vac line.
Replace 1 section as a time.

This stuff is very good.
DO NOT Replace the Plastic lines over the engine else you will smell burning plastic smell in the cabin.

good luck.

I replaced the plastic lines running from the brake vacuum to the underside of the vacuum canisters with Verocious lines. I didn't and do not have the smell of burning plastic in my cabin.
