That clear hose isn't the best stuff. I used it and it got hot then Collapsed in the bends. I ran a much shorter peice than the pic, because I didn't like the look of that long hose running all over the engine area.
Advance auto parts has hose made just for the PCV valve.
I tried fuel line but it to collapsed. Even if the hose feels strong the heat kills it.
Keep in mind most of the hose people are using is designed to take pressure not vac.

how come when I did mine I could hear a very audible suction (or blowing don't remember which one now) noise. I inatalled everyting correctly but I could hear airflow that I couldn't hear before, and it was comming from where my pcv valve was. Is it just me? Was it the wrong hose? or is that normal?

sounds like air is leaking from the lines, get some air line fittings to tighten the hose down ( home depot) compressor fittings section in hardware. see if that works
