If you don't know what it is and what is does, then you don't need to remove it. The double throttle prevents you from using too much throttle before the car has completely warmed up and can help prevent surging as you open the throttle. Those are not bad things to have protection from. The only problem is that if the solenoid fails, it can create a boost problem.

Max boost would be restricted to around 5 PSI.
