Default internal wastegate question

if i buy a turbo with an internal wastegate, can it be taken off and used without it? The turbo is a garret gt35r.
thanks

You can convert an internally wastegated turbo to "not use the wastegate" by welding the flapper valve shut, but it seems to be counterproductive, as you can buy a GT35 that is made for external wastegates.
