<<First the throttle cable, do I have to use the 200's

I think you should be able to use your stock one, best thing to do is wait
until everything is in place, I have used stock 4kq cables in the past, so
you should be ok.

All you need to do is connect it to manifold vacuum, whether through its own
fitting or not. T-ing into another hose is fine, the one way valve on the
booster should do the rest for you (in blocking boost from the cannister)

If you can get your hands on an Urq IC that would do the trick too, and allow
you to keep the front in tact.
