RETed will become famous soon enough
Is just the bottom one connect to the turbine side?
The top solenoid looks like it's connected to the compressor side, so that's more like an electronically controlled compressor bypass valve.

I've seen wastegates used on the compressor side, but this can induce huge amounts of compressor surge upon opening.
