alternate brake booster

Anyone know if there are any alternate ways to hook up the brakebooster on a jspec s4 intake manifold?

I cant find the bolt and such that was on the manifold for the brake booster....no idea where i would be able to find that piece. Anyone know where I might be able to find one? Or if theres a different way of hooking it up?

It needs a vacuum source.

I have mine hooked up to the top nipple on the front of my upper intake manifold. I used a check valve as an adpater to go from the 3.5mm to 6mm vacuum hose that runs to the brake booster.

Have had no ill effects and my brakes work as good as before.

hopefully I can find some kind of adapter like that. Hell I can barely find small enough tees for the damn vacuum hoses and such.
