I fail at vacuum diagrams

My brain is mush right now. I'm trying to get my simplified sequential setup back together 1.5 years after it was removed and I am lost.

This is the best picture I can find that looks like the simplified setup that I have as there seems to be a few different ways to go about this (pic below) and it shows a few things better than other diagrams I've found, only I need this same picture but WITH a boost controller setup, and I need to know what hard lines get capped/are not used, oh and I eliminated my OMP, so what do I do with all the baby blue lines, and if they are just eliminated, do I just cap those bottom nipples of the solenoids that are attached to the UIM?

I know this is easier than I am making it, but after a couple days looking over these, my brain has completely stopped working. Really what has me fried is the metal hard lines, which ones to use, and which ones to leave/cap off.

Oh, and it was setup that the vacuum hose that comes out of LIM that is kinda behind the fuel rail, it goes straight to the FPR without any solenoid. Is this okay? Car was originally routed this way so I am assuming it works since it did before the motor went south.

Oh, and the two nipples that come off the oil filler kneck, the top one was capped and the bottom line is open....where does the bottom line go?

Someone needs to make a video like Bruce did for R&Ring, only show the vacuum jobs and wiring harness step by step for retards like me.

If you are removing the OMP, you should pull the oil injection nozzles and replace them with a bolt.

The other one connects to a hard line which runs across the engine and down by the coolant filler neck. Then a vacuum line comes off that and attaches to the primary turbo plastic elbow.

Okay, that makes total sense to me. Thanks man for helping with that part of my question.

The oil injector nozzles were replaced with a metric port plug.

This is where I'm at. These hard lines and what gets capped and what lines the others run to.

The two vacuum lines on the right with hose attached come from the actuator and the other nipple next to the actuator. I believe those run to two turbo control solenoids, if not please correct me.

The other two lines with vacuum line and the 4 capped hard lines, I'm not sure of. I think one of two of those 6 mystery lines was for the OMP injector nozzles, and those have been blocked off so I won't need what hard line it was for those nozzles. The two lines with the vacuum line attached on the left side, I'm pretty sure those lines were there when the motor was taken apart, but I'm not even sure of that, might have just been put there to keep from losing them. This has been SLOWLY on going for 1.5 years, so it's hard to really remember much.

Any time I take something apart, I take a photo beforehand. Not only is my memory bad, but since I don't understand what the heck I'm doing to begin with, I need all the help I can get. Good luck.

I had help taking it apart and rebuilding the motor, but I'm running solo now which I didnt know in the beginning is what I was going to do. Ive learned so much doing it myself, just I'm a noob trying to install a motor with no previous labeling and no photos of the motor before the pull.....so basically I'm doing this blind.

Hmm, i'm curious about this statement. Can you run the FPR without the solenoid? I'm having some funky issues with mine running correctly, wondering if i should just go direct with vacuum hose and bypass the solenoid, see if that makes any change.

Thats why I put a new cap and clamp there. The one in the pic is already in the trash.
