83 300dt vac hose routing

Ive got an 83 300 dt
I'm removing the vac locks and going electric
I'm changing over to the 240d manual heater set up
Removed cruise control
Alda has been deleted
How can I route my vac hoses so car shut off with key
Looks like there is 1 run running down to auto trans( I'm going manual trans soon)
A line to banjo bolt on intake
2 brown vac lines look like it goes ignition
1 that goes vac canister in trunk( is it ok to remove this)?
How do I hook up vac lines that are remaining

There is usually a brown line going into the firewall and come back from the igintion lock that routes to the shut off valve that sits below where your Alda used to be. You would need to have this connected and no major leaks elsewhere.

Why would you delete ALDA? Its how more fuel gets scheduled when you have boost. May as well take the turbo off too.

Please take some time to learn about your vehicle before modifying it else you'll wind up very unhappy with it .

I did it and cleaned all the junk out
Runs awesome
Much more throttle response and power
Its part of the emissions control that goes bad as ti.e goes by and causes sluggish take off and other weak power issues

You must have fixed other problems as there's no way removing the ALDA makes it run better .

Research fuel / air mixtures .
