bov install question

This is kinda a noob question (and I did search but I didn't get a good answer). I'm getting to the final stages of my GXL/S5 TII conversion, and I'm a bit confused about the BOV set up. First off, where does the small pipe that comes off the side of the main pipe go to? Does it plug into the spot on the TID where the stock bypass valve is? Secondly, where does the vac line on the BOV itself go to? BTW it's a HKS sequential BOV.

Small vacuum line goes to somewhere on the intake manifold AFTER the throttle body.

The exit of the BOV isn't designed to go to anywhere.

Any holes left over after the intake in the stock pipes needs to be plugged up.

So the extra opening on the pipe that the BOV is mounted to should be plugged as well?
