If the solenoid was bypassed it should run high boost all the time, unless there is another issue with boost pipes or a bad actuator. What pressure are you seeing?

its boastin about .45 on da boast gauge,,,

either a dodgey actuator, your boost guage could be faulty ? does it feel as fast as it should ?, also i dont know if its possible coz ur only swappin the solenoids round but put on the wrong way ...have a check theres a tut on here im sure for bypassing them make sure yours looks like the one in the tut ...good luck
