after looking at my tta i noticed that my gn has the 3 piece hose from wastegate and turbo fitting missing. it has a hose from turbo to wastegate and nothing on the solenoid. hasnt caused any problems like boost creep or over boost. anybody else with that setup or did my mech. screw up and throw away the wrong part.
 
Sounds like he hooked it up tuner style. Im running my car that way too. A hose directly from the compressor to the wastegate actuator bypassing the wastegate solenoid altogether. It won't hurt anything that way.

Once I bolted my new 6262 Billet turbo on I couldn't control the boost with the wastegate solenoid hooked up. I ran the hose directly from the comp. to the actuator and my boost tamed down then.

If im not mistaken when running the wastegate this way if you have some KR the boost won't pull back. I could be wrong though.
