Default Vacuum line placement?

Here is my set up it a stock d16z6 with a t3 garret turbocharger, tial wastegate, and greddy type s BOV. i want to know the best places to t my lines to pull vacuum. any insight will be great.

My wastgate line is going to the turbo. My boost gauge i think ill t into the brake booster line, but do i do it on the motor side of the check valve or the master cylinder side of the check valve? my Bov i guess i can t into the purge solenoid valve line that goes to the canister, is that a good line to t into?

This is my first turbo set up so i want to double check before i start cutting up hoses. Please keep the rude remarks to yourselves. Thanks in advance.
