Thanks to all who were able to provide Handy Hintz to me about this!

It doesn't appear to be much of a job at all to install the unit, and I
reckon the vacuum assist canister is not needed.

You want to attach to the throttle cable location at the throttle lever.  It should be easy to hook up.  I have not done it yet (need to get the system working properly before I start adding more stuff to it) but have done it to a Honda in the past (the same Audiovox system).  I have one in my room with a lengthened control cable for the Vanagon.
