3 port wastegate actuator

I just got a new wastegate actuator and it has three ports/nipples. Two side by side on the top half and one in the middle of the two halfs. Which do i hook up vac lines to?

If all 3 are on the same sideof the piston then 2 of them would have to be blocked of if you don't use them.

i started the car with only a vac line hooked to one port on the top ( the one its hooked up to in the pics), and i felt to see if the other nipples had vac, the one next to it did but the other didnt, im thinking its for boost only so could i just plug it up or do i need boost to it?

ok so i figured it out the top two are for the same chaber and the one in the middle is for a differnt one, there all vac/boost. So i ran a vac line to one of the top ones and the one in the middle and plugged the other top one. I get 10psi( which is what its suppose to be) but then it creeps to 15 by 4k ish, I think i have to port the wastegate as its meant for a 2.0 and i have i 2.4.
