Default Running Vac Lines To IM

Ok. So I saw a few people posted that they've been hooking their wastegate to their intake manifold. Well I dont understand where I should get pressure for the Wastegate, BOV, BTM, and Boost Gauge from. If someone could spell out the whole Running Vac Lines to me then I could understand it. Also if I run to my intake manifold how should I plug up the Nipple that the wastegate was originally hooked up to? * 14b Compressor neck*

the wastegate should be connected to your charge pipe. BOV and boost gauge to the manifold. pep boys has vacuum plug you can put over nipples.

So I can tee them off all of the same place on the IM? Any idea on filling the nipple on the compressor neck?

just keep the wg actuator off the compressor outlet and make a boost gauge. i t'd everything else off my fmr vac line. boost gauge and line going to btm. the line that runs to the btm is then t'd to my bov that is located in the front bumper. no problems with it that way a month later and over 2k miles on it so far.
