Greens are both grounds it doesn't matter which one you splice.

I can't really tell but one of them should be red with a yellow stripe. Unless both of them are that color...

If they are you can just wire tie the solenoid in and test it. A quick goosing of the throttle should make the solenoid click a bit.

there is a red wire with a yellow strip...

just to confirm red wire with yellow strip and green wire with yellow strip and splice both onto the Boost Solenoid & Tape off the other 2!

will do and post results.

i also read that when initally hooked up the car should not be driven (at least boosting)?

the next questions is how-to tune lol.

Seems like you're going to have to test all possible connections. You will have to connect to one of the wires, hook all the boost pipes up, then adjust the WGDC and BDEL tables and see if they change boost.
