Copy my traffic? Is that in reference to my speed test?

OK, now I have another question.

Have I altered the function of my turbo at all by bypassing this EGR actuator/controller?

I am completely unfamiliar with how a turbo works except that it uses the exhaust to turn a compressor that in turn compresses the intake air supply.

What is a wastegate and how is it actuated?

By bypassing this line have I compromised anything other than EGR function?
