the top port is only used if you are running an electronic boost contoller.

Also from the intake manifold. If you're not using an electric boost solenoid to control boost I think the top one is vented, not blocked.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Why don't you want to use a boost solenoid?

Yeah just leave the top open if not using a bc.

Boost gauge from intake and wastegate bottom port from either the intake or comp housing

Connect the bottom port to your compressor housing and leave the top port open if you're not using an electronic boost controller. If you're using a manual boost controller, route it inline with the bottom port.
