Exclamation UIM double throttle flaps removed, now what should be capped off?

I have just gasket matched the ports and removed the butterflys in the UIM. Now that this is done, what has to be capped off that has to do with the double throttle warm up flaps? I dont want to remove anything (want to keep the car stock looking as possible) so just capping off what is not needed is what i would like to know....

I have disabled my double throttle by simply capping the vacuum nipples on the front and the back of the upper intake manifold. The front cap is right under the bracket that holds the throttle cable. The rear cap is on the little canister on the opposite side.

I still have the butterflies.

We continually get reference to this site- I keep trying to open the rotormafia.com link, and it never opens. Is it still up?
