If it was me I would just use the port on the compressor for the WG boost source and cap the one on the back of the mani. The shorter the vac lines are to the WG the less it will spike...at least that is what I noticed.

What is your reasoning for wanting to use the back of the mani?

If you really want to use the manifold one just plug the hole on the compressor otherwise you'll have a boost leak.
