Default Two ports but many vacuum hoses--Vic Jr.

I have a Vic Jr for use on my turbo setup. There's the barb on the side of the manifold and then the big one in the back for the brake booster. I was thinking today of all the things that need vacuum and how they were going to be sourced:

Heater controls
Another factory vacuum line near the big C100, not sure what it's for right now--horn maybe?
MAP sensor
brake booster
2 ports on wastegate
BOV port
boost gauge
FPR

I'm sure I'm missing something else. So where to source my vacuum? An old hot rodding friend suggested using a vacuum canister and using a "log" with several ports on it however I can't seem to find a log. I thought about adding some vacuum ports to the manifold but thought that might not be a good idea either.

You want a vacuum manifold.

Excellent. I'll run one of these off a vacuum canister.
