Default 3SX TD05 Kit install?

I received the 3sx kit and noticed that the pipe that goes from the rear turbo manifold to the wastegate flange is not welded! Are we supposed to weld that on or just connect them together and bolt the wastegate on to the pre cat?

I know for a fact that you can removed the stock turbo actuator off of the turbo, not sure what to tell you about the wastegate thing though.

Those pieces just slip ogether and go to your wastegate. No welding required
On the interrnal wastegates, when the turbo is bolted up the flapper chamber is closed which will prevent them form bypassing. Most people do use a spot weld on the flapper just for added protection.

Hope this helps.

So I can remove the stock turbo actuator off of the turbo without welding anything on the turbo?

Yes. but I personally would tack a weld on the flapper to keep it closed before removing the actuator.

it shouldn't matter if the actuator is on or off if you're welding the flapper.
