Default Manual Boost Controller Installation?????????

just bought me a Manual Boost Controller and hopefully it will help me on adjusting the certain PSI that i want to run on my Accord. It is a MBC and there are two stickers on each side says SRP. Don't know if you guys familiar with that. Anyways it is equipped with ball spring to reduce Tubo lag and here's the website:

I also received an instruction but just want to double check with y'all opinions. The nipple as shown at the bottom, it says to connect to Wastegate (i'm using 38mm and there's a Nipple at the very top of it), so i'm assuming that's where i need to connect to. But the straight nipple says to connect to Boost Source (is that to a Vacuum Source???) like connect to the Intake Manifold or BOV etc?????

boost source goes to compressor housing, charge piping, or intake manifold

wastegate goes to the BOTTOM (side) port on the wastegate. Not the top one.

the bottom one does go to the turbo. you put the boost controller in line with it. the top one's for an electronic boost controller you leave it open with an MBC.

trust me I know a little bit about this stuff.
