Question No Wastegate on the turbo???

I have a 1996 F250 7.3 Diesel Crew Cab, 4x4, and I was just wondering why there isn't a wastegate on the turbo. Is it supposed to be lacking a wastegate?? Just curious I guess.

dosnt make enough boost to need one. the larger exhaust housing on it makes enough air flow and lessens backpresure enough so the wastegate isnt needed
