Default turbo install---> vacuum lines with a fitting on the turbo compressor housing

ok, i'm going to T off the brake booster line for the wastegate and T off the BOV and boost gauge at the FPR -> intake manifold line.
i'm not sure on the tial wastegate which line goes to the turbo and which goes to the brake booster line...
is it the top fitting for the brake booster and the bottom one to the turbo compressor housing?
please help, last part of my install

put the turbo compressor line in the side(bottom) port, leave the top of the WG open.

so just attach the vacuum line from the bottom wg fitting to the turbo compressor housing fitting.
no tapping of the brake booster line needed?
just leave the fitting off the top of the tial or install it and don't attach anything to it?

yeah that will get you boosting safely for now at whatever boost level the WG spring is set for. you use the top hole with an electronic boost controller

Is this better than having the side wg port attached to the brake booster? Quicker spool up?
