The only vacuum lines your car needs, is the One on the pass side of the intake, goes to your BOV. The one on the driver side, goes to your Fuel Pressure Regulator, and the one on the back of the intake manifold goes to your brake booster. Boost source comes from the compressor housing. Every one on the TB can be plugged.

If you have a boost controller, it should go from your boost source (pref the compressor housing or right off of the compressor on the J Pipe), to your controller and then to your wastegate.

If you have a Boost Gauge, Put a T Fitting on the vacume source on the driver side of the intake manifold, and send one to your boost gauge, and the other to your fuel pressure regulator.

Thats all you honestly need. Everything else can be ripped out. I have an EGR and ISC Blockoff and thats how I have my shit setup and it runs GREAT!

I don't know if I would go from one fitting to the next on the TB... I did that, and I think thats why I a bad reading on Mercury on my gauge. Because I believe one or two of them are before the Butterfly, and the others are after it. Someone please chime in on this. I did it and I'm about to properly plug each one.

Can i really just "rip it all out" and block off both ends w/e it goes too?

Honestly, like I said, go for it! I pulled the canister out from under the battery and all the vacuum lines. I bought brand new vacuum lines from Autozone, costs a few cents a foot so I bought alot. And Ran clean brand new lines to what is NEEDED. Which is stated in my first Reply.

Next to the mounting point for the coil packs, there is a plug on the intake manifold. I got a fitting for that plug, that will connect my boost gauge directly, Just so I'm not splitting the fuel pressure line.

what canister?

evaporative emissions canister under the battery.

just another note, you can block the egr and leave the lines hooked up to the egr, it still will operate the egr but it will be blocked so, but if you insist on deleting the lines here the link.
