Default DIY ITB and brake booster

I'm going by the homemadeturbo.com project going to jb weld up either the B16 or the hayabusa injectors bungs. I'm using DSM 390's so any input about this is appreciated. The other thing is I noticed he used a stock brakebooster bung from the manifold back but mine just snapped. I was wondering if the GE vacuum manifold would have enough vacuum if I ran the 4 lines into it and then the one to the MAP, FPR then other to the brake booser. Will this be enough vacuum on the brake booster to make the diaphram work correctly??

I tapped the 'busa injector locations with 1/8" NPT brass fittings so that I can potentially use those locations in the future for injectors. I run 4 lines, one from each runner, to a vacuum log (originally the one shown in the picture made from PVC piping, now they run to a GE vac. manifold).

That big port you see on the end of the log is what I ran my brake booster from. Just make sure you run the brake booster on the correct side from the check valve, otherwise you'll be SOL.
