The MAP sensor needs to be able to respond quickly to changes in
manifold pressure, so there is no need for much volume in the vacuum
"reservoir". It is only necessary to bring a vacuum tapping from each
throttle to a common point. A short length of 10 dia alloy tube with the
ends plugged would do fine. And a "pulsation dampener" in the line to the
MAP sensor would be a good idea as well.

If you are after a vacuum collector/canister so you can still run the brake booster (and map sensor if you are not switching to standalone ECU and mapping purely on throttle position) these guys have what you are looking for.

I am using one of these with my ITBS on the F20 engine. Very very cheap considering.

I had a posh trust one on my old 4AGE when running ITBS - but I was daft and sold it LOL.
