bypassing, Wastegate Control Solenoid

Is this a good thing or bad thing. a friend told me it was bad and we bypassed it. Will this hurt or affect the engine in any way?

Its called Tuner style. I'd say more than 50% of the people on the board have it that way. You just put in a bleeder valve and now you have an easily adjustable wastegate.

i have an adjustable wastegate what would putting a bleeder valve on do?

A bleader valve lets you run hoses into the cockpit of your car. You can then bleed off pressure from the wastegate, that in turn lets you turn up the boost from inside the car.
