This is a very good idea! I was messing around the other day and just connected the wastegate straight to the vacuum sounce. It was all around more responsive but of course, it eventually set a code and it's also boosting a little higher than normal but not too bad.

One improvment I would suggest is to put a pinhole oriface in the upstream connector to slow the venting of vacuum when the solenoid dumps. As an alternative you can put a much larger reservoir to ensure enough volume. Connecting a vacuum gauge to the wastegate will be more telling if you have the proper size.
