I'm using the Heidt's adjustable bypass on my Hydratech system. Here's my thoughts on it:
First off, there's no PS noise. I was wondering about that, but it's a non-issue.
The pedal has less initial bite.
The steering is noticeably firmer when I'm parked/not moving. It's slightly firmer at cruise speeds.
The biggest plus that I've experienced is there's less initial 'bite' or 'hit' of the hydraulic assist unit. The steering was only marginally affected. I've gone from one extreme to the other with the bypass and that seems to have been the biggest change.
Hope this helps.
