Default wastegate rattle?

for some reason it sounds like the sping in the 35mmxt wastegate is making noise at idle.I have a hose runing from the turbo to it.If i was to run a hose from intake to the wastegate to keep vac. on it would it hurt the wastegate or keep it closed at idle and not make noise.should i plug the turbo hose and just run one from the intake manifold?

Sounds like there's something wrong with the wg, take it apart and have a look.
