if it was not opening then you would run mega boost until your engine expired. If your lucky you would keep hitting fuel cut.
If it is always open then you would experience slow spool up and possibly less boost.
If you have a boost guage thats your best way of checking.
what problems are you experiencing?

My car wasn't boosting right (should hold at 16 PSI, was only reaching 14 PSI...) until I tightened the actuator rod.

If it is permanently open then the car acts like a N/A, 0 PSI boost. Had this happen to me once when the E clip on the actuator rod came loose, and the rod end disconnected from the wastegate.
