Can someone help me with what line is the waste water on the RODI canister? Yellow or Blue? I think I may have mixed them up.

The yellow line is waste, the blue is your RODI water

When it was set up like this, I was getting barely any waste water.

I just switched them to try it, and it seems like it is running normal now.

Also, there was a little green flow restrictor in the blue line.

The flow restrictor should be in the waste line
 
Can you take a picture showing the end with the two lines face on? It's not really clear to me which is waste and which is RO. I am leaning towards the blue in your photo as waste.

When you turn it on which line is giving you the really high output?

The other way to check would be with a tds meter.
 
This is how I have it now, Does this look correct with the blue line being permate and the yellow being waste?

Looks to me the yellow is waste on your RO housing. Should be easy to tell if you pull the other ends and run both into a bucket. Waste will be flowing much more than RO. Install the restrictor in whichever is the waste line.
 
I picture from the end view might help to confirm which is which
Ok- thank you for your help.

Here is an end view photo, so I dont get confused, is the waste on the left or right?
