thank you in advance everyone!
I don't know what additional info you might need. It's a pretty straight forward install. Looks like it has gasket maker on it; I would definitely take a razor and clean all that off before installing it.
Vacuum hose connections just depends on how you have things routed. It looks like someone threaded in a brass fitting with a smaller OD on it - I put a fitting for my brake booster there, connected the boost gauge line right above that, top left is for my MBC/wastegate, and then the two on the bottom go to my AFPR and my BOV.
I skipped the LSJ TOB and opted for a LE5 TB. Neither one seems to fit without a spacer though, so that is slightly irritating.
