installing microtech,remove everything?

i know that it is probably a stupid question that has been asked a zillion times but just want to make sure. i am going with a garrett t04s and a npr font mount just to give yahll some background. i am in the middle of a microtech install and would like to make sure that i dont have to keep the rats nest or any of the solienoids or whatnot.
got this from the bare block thread is it right?
FPR -> nipple on inside of LIM, pointing towards firewall at a slight angle

omp spider -> middle nipple on UIM. its bigger than the other two

boost sensor -> top nipple on UIM

bottom nipple on UIM -> nipple between inj

the big fat nipple on UIM should be obvious

bov -> nipple under bac

three nipples facing radiator should be capped

but i will be removing my omp and what not so what do i do with the oil injectors? im gonna be blocking off the omp so after i remove the lines do i just leave the injectors in the block or pull them out and fill the holes with what?

also the fuel line coming from the filter goes to the primary rail? then the one leaving the two rails goes to the tank return? then jjust run a new line to the charcol canister or can i remove that to?

You won't need the boost sensor, the Microtech uses a MAP sensor. For the oil injectors, put bolts where the injectors were.

you can leave the boost sensor and keep your std boost gauge working, i did.
Its not real usefull, but better than a dead gauge IMO

Just a thought for you

These are just different names for the same thing. You replace the factory MAP sensor with the MicroTech one, using the same line.

All of the solenoids and the vac spider are removed. You need to run new fuel lines and a new line for the fuel pressure regulator from the angled nipple on the LIM. You might as well remove the charcoal canister and purge control valve as well.
