Default Newb Turbo vacuum line questions

Before you all tell me to search, i have, and i have not found exactly what i am looking for. I got a turbo kit from a buddy and need some help with the vacuum lines. Alright, the wastgate has 2 places were vacuum lines are supposed to go, one on top and one on bottom( they are little nipple). Alright, were are each of these things supposed to connect to, and also were do i install the wastegate actuator? My second question is on my bov there are also 2 nipples for vacuum sources, again one on top and one on bottom, were are these supposed to connect to? I am a newb at this turbo stuff and want to try to do it all myself and learn something rather than pay someone else. Thanks for the help

for the wastegate, are you using any kind of boost controller?
if not put a line from preferably the turbo to the bottom port of the wastegate. if you cant reference boost from the turbo, use manifold. the top port is for a boost controller.

as far as the bov, i need to know which one you have.
