Stupid manual boost question installation?

I have a manual boost controller. I have a 5 pound spring in the wastegate. I hooked up one end to the bottom of the wastegate and the other end to the side of the turbo. It really doesnt do anything. I know i hooked this up wrong. Im to tired to figure this one out so im cheating and asking you guys. how do i hook up a manual boost controller?

Thanks
Alex

Although these aren't directions for manual Boost controller, it's still the same concept...

sorry the pic was not coming up at first. Im at work and for some reason they can block pictures and not text. I can see it now. Thanks. Unfortunatly i already just put the 14pound spring in because my tune is tomorrow. Only problem is that it flat lines at about 7lbs. I only went 1/4-1/2 throttle at 4k because its not tuned yet but i thought it would at least start creeping up higher. It just levels out at 7lbs.

i was gonna say what the hell,i thought the name was sprayed 01 lmao.its really easy to hook up that controller,id put the smaller spring back in and get the controller running so u can have low boost and high boost.just bring the 14# spring with you.good luck on the dyno.
