Nobody's ever done the solenoid controlled valve system yet (that I'm aware of), but with or without boost, it completely negates the need for any type of throttle restriction. That along with it's many other potential benefits, I'd be looking into something like that, long before attempting to use unnecessary addition of parts, drag, expense, as well as extra weight and increased load to justify removing a simple plate or the functionality thereof.

Just me, though. Proceed, sirs.
