Now, take the springs out of the hoses. So you don't lean it under boost.
If you cut them just the right length, the hoses will have a tension between the tubes and hold a perfect curve and not suck closed. Practice and put the natural curve of the hose bowing outward to give the right tension.
Lose the worm clamps and hunt down these old time spring clips. Sell all the AN crap to Patrick.
See here; has worked a charm for decades:

The brother knows what he's talkin' about. I use the same stuff. Those spring clips work well and look old-school. Re-use of them is very good. I've probably had mine off and back on so many times I lost count.
If your hose is cut to the correct length, it shouldn't kink. The hose I used came off a roll at Pep Boys. Nothing special about it.
