what type of wg is it? the vac fitting on top isn't used unless you're running an EBC.

ohoh, if you dont have any type of boost control, mb or ebc, then attach the compressor housing nipple to the boost fitting on the wg.

Should I take the line from the compressor housing or from the manifold? Wouldn't it be more accurate from the manifold since I will be running it through an intercooler?

If you take it from the manifold, it will be more accurate. Pressure is usually lost between the turbo and manifold.
