You can get 12v vac pumps for brake boosters for pretty cheap. Like 100 bucks or something. 

I could use one of the injector holes or just drill a hole in my manifold though I guess 

Could also go for a pedal box and just get rid of the brake booster (more weight saving?) not sure on legality of running a pedal box on a road car however. 

Who needs assisted brakes right, can still plumb it into the abs system as well from memory

Yeah it's not that hard to get a vac signal, the last setup just had a line coming off two of the throttles. 

It didnt feel quite as good as what you get from a plenum though.

For the drags it doesnt matter there's heaps of area to slow down when you're only reaching 100mph or so.

Ahh not really necessary for an NA motor. 

I've been watching one of the videos of the launch, and I can see my rear suspension is punishing me a bit. 
The rear shocks are completely flogged, if I push the car down it bounces about 3 times before coming still.
So it's squatting heaps and unloading the front. 
So maybe some 60ft improvements with some stiffer / solid rear
