The idle air control valve (IACV) you can leave attached to the firewall, or loop the water lines and remove it completely. It is a non-functioning item with ITB's. The resulting CEL can be dissabled in most rom editing softwares like CROME, Hondata...etc

Run one vacuum line from each runner to a separate vacuum manifold. You can use the Golden Eagle unit HERE, or make your own using a 2" x 6" PVC tube and drill and tap your own fittings. From this manifold, you will run your brake booster line, MAP sensor, and any other vacuum based mechanism you have (FPR, etc).

You can mount the intake air temp sensor (IAT) anywhere. Since you are injesting air from the engine bay, your air temperature based fuel corrections will be basically spot on if the IAT is located near the throttles.

he's right but the only problem i ran into with using the golden eagle manifold is that there was not enough reserve vacuum for sudden throttle blips. so i built one out of some 3 inch aluminium intake piping and welded caps and the end like you would do if you used pvc pipe. i also have my iat sensor hanging by the end of the velocity stacks on the throtle bodies and it seemd the work fine
