How to make an external WG run spring pressure?
How do I connect the vaccum lines to the gate?
Of course, there are 2 connectors, one on top and one on the bottom.

Are you asking how to connect a external wastegate mate? If so hit us up at the shop when you can.
** Just read your post again, never ran spring pressure other than using a boost controller on wastegate set to spring. Try connecting to two lines perhaps??**

Don't know what kind of 'gate you got but if I recall correctly the spring pushes the valve down which closes the gate. To run just spring pressure you want to connect just the bottom vacuum line where pressure (aka boost) will oppose the spring.
edit: I just checked some other references and there are some differences in wastegate design. Just figure out which way the spring goes to keep the wastegate closed and then you can figure out what port to use.
