Default Help! How do i force my internal wastegate to stay open?

I failed smog miserably today (HC PPM was 631, limit is 100!!) so i'm gonna put in my stock injectors and stock ECU -- the idle on my hondata is funky and it's way too hard to fix without access to a laptop for datalogging..
I'd like to keep the internal wastegate open so that I don't boost at all -- I've heard this is doable but i have no idea how.

thanks!

Is there anyway that you can take the actuator off and just let it dangle open?
