Default 2008 ls460 vacuum

I removed the exhaust to a 2010 quattroport from front end damage.My question is the Maserati muffler is a similar shape to the LS so just wondering how I can run vacuum to the Maserati valves to open and close them with a remote, but I'm not sure what vacuum line to plug into/piggyback from? or if I should just get a aftermarket remote kit that pulls the vacuum itself? I know I can probably just do a delete but I have the mufflers so I want to use them, also have Megan mid pipes coming so I'm interested in how it may sound. I can also cut into muffler to weld valve open but would like to have the option. Thank you for any info on this.

Get a remote/standalone kit. Do not pull from the engine since it will not like even the slightest leak

I agree with Striker. The potential for creating problems is high.

Thank you. that was the option I was most likely to go with. I was just trying to find a decent stand alone but I guess they're all made overseas and from the looks of it same manufacturer
