Default Boost hole???

I just finished installign my turbonetics(drag) kit. I bought it used and there are 2 vac lines not hooked up because i dont know where they go. and i have a horrobal (lag/hole)when i hit the gas... you hear the turbo spool way up and the car bogs down.. then if you let off the gas a little it will then excelerate with only 4psi. will these vac lines cause that?
the lines i dont know where to put are:
1. On the top,center of the Waste gate
2. On the right hand side of the waste gate
3. on the compresor side of the turbo housing

so any sudjestions?

1.The top center of the wastegate vents. If you have a boost controller it would go ther.
2.The side of it goes to the intake manifold.
3.Plug the compressor hole.
if you cant do 2,3 then:
Run a line from the compressor hole to the side of the wastegate.

lol....If you read the FAQ or did a little bit of research on how the turbo system works you would have seen the problem from the beginning.
Detonation sound like marbles in the engine.
Happy boosting
