What Dean meant by compressor discharge silencer is a small sponge-like thing inserted in the turbocharger-to-intercooler hose. This is what I assume at least.
I am almost certain that he did not mean the the bypass valve return hose. Removing this will cause damage as the valve remains open during idle and unfiltered air enters the engine.
This was the subject of a large debate a few months ago.
Removing the hose will not help performance in any way either.
If you want to improve spoolup and get the cool sound, get a piston-type dumpvalve.
In any case the bypass valve will most likely develop leaks loosing boost now that you got the controler; you can tell when this happens from an audible hooting noise on accceleration around 4000rpm.
I have a Bailey dumpvalve
