Default Is this how you hook up a boost controller with an external wastegate?

Alright, I'm confused about how the vacuum lines connect to the controller and all that. I'm thinkin one hose comes out the top of the wastegate then goes to the CON side, then one goes from the NO side and goes to the intercooler piping with a T then goes to the bottom side of the wastegate. Is this right? So it pretty much makes a loop?

What boost controler do you have?

If you have a manual boost controler you use the side niple on the gate and leave the top one alone. You have to folow the instructions to know witch side is in or out on the boost controler,from the turbo side to the waste gate.

It's the AVC-R and by the looks of it I use both the side and the top, what you think?

Umm I'm not sure what you mean does it loop from the waste gate to the actuator then the intake piping then back to the wastegate?
