Do I need the waste gate hooked up!

[drives mopars]

I have a banks turbo on my 93, i think the
threaded item is close to the end, i guess this is at a position so it will only open
late, do i need this vacuum line looked up

my stock turbo did not have waste gate.
is this only for extra insurance?
under normal driving does my gate open up?
i get about 28 lbs boost.

Check my signature - I've got a Banks on my 93 and after I adjusted the waste gate I get 27lbs of boost (same as you). I can adjust for more but I am very happy with my current performance. I would adjust the boost to get better performance. You've got the larger injectors have you "tweaked" the pump to get all that you can get?
