You need to run a hose out from the compressor. Put a tee on the end of it. From the tee run one line to the bottom port of the WG. The other end of the tee run a line to the boost bleeder/air regulator then to the top port of the WG. With the bleeder/ air reg closed you will get all boost to bottom port opening up spring in WG very fast hence only having 10 psi. With bleeder on top line opened a little bit some boost now goes to top port and pushes down on spring keeping WG puck sealed longer creating more boost.

Clear as mud?

Shouldn't need to run to the vac block.
