Not all turbos come with a nipple on the compressor housing.

I wouldn't cap it. It will give you the best wastegate response if you tap the source from there since you will be seeing it as it is made. I wouldn't run it to the manifold.

What do the two ports on the wastegate do? You are making this a whole lot more difficult than it should be.

lol i know!
im not sure the the 2 ports do but i do see a lot of people not using the top port.
i was told to just connect the compressor side nipple to the back port on the WG and not use a BC. just run it off the spring
