Default Turbo induction hose

When fitting turbo induction hose with no connections for breathers or DV connection what do you do with the dv hose.
I am fitting catch can for the breathers but a bit of general advice would also be appreciated.

Just remove the hose (or leave it attached) from the DV and leave it as a vent-to-air type one. It just means the charge is jettisoned to atmosphere rather than go back into the inlet tract. Only time will tell whether the engine runs "badly" in this state e.g. jerky throttle transitions, etc...

After venting the breathers to the catch can and the dv to air, what else is left to sort ?

The return from the boost control system, assuming you're not running a bleed valve.

If it was me tho I'd get an intake pipe with the right connections on it.

With regard to the induction hose mod, do you mean?

If so, then nothing else.

EDIT: Oh yes... forgot about the BCS's return ^^^. But seeing as there're no ports on the intake hose, it'll have to hang free and VTA too (which is fine to do).
