It should open on vacuum... Infact some are open at idle... The bottom is the signal and the top is connected to boost via ebc or mbc...
If you have no boost controler leave the top vented to atmo via tube..

I remember most of the early externally wastegated, suck through turbo setups used to rig the wastegate to open when there was vacuum in the inlet manifold.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but if the top hose is connected to the inlet manifold via a solenoid, and the side port is plumbed to the compressor housing, then you should be able to have the wastegate open when cruising to increase fuel efficiency.
