Default 1988 Audi 5000 Manual Boost Controller

Does anyone have a picture of their installation on an Audi 5000?
I read on http://www.gtquattro.com/boostin.html: "By use of a pressure regulator you can bypass the frequency valve which regulates pressure to control the wastegate. A pressure regulator is installed in place of the frequency valve to permit addition of regulated boost pressure on the top side of the WG diaphragm... The input pressure is taken from the boost side of the Pressure transducer, and the output side is directed to the wastegate control port."

I'm assuming the wastegate control port is the top nipple on the wastegate in the picture... Is this right? I bought a Voodoo III MBC on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...ht_2520wt_1161) and I just want to know how to throw it in the mix. Do I just disconnect the boost control solenoid entirely (block off the lines and leave electrically plugged in) and run intake manifold boost pressure to the MBC then run the MBC to the top wastegate nipple?
