You need a sandwich adapter, there are a few companies who make them. Don't try to tap it off the sendine unit.
You can soucre the vaccum from the turbo for the wastegate but there is some drilling and tapping involved.
The BOV and wastegate need vaccum to function correctly, you can "t" off the one on the intake mani and use those.

I used one like this. You still need to tap the oil pan if you haven't already.

woah woah woah... put your brakes on.
an FMU + large injectors will cause you a ton or flooding problems. FMU's are designed to run stock, or near stock injector size. stock is 240. 310 is as high as i would recommend.
as for the block fitting, it is a BSPT fitting- not an NPT. so make sure you get the right thing.
