Default Turbo time!

First post on here guys so be kind.

Got a V40 derv 115bhp sport...
Lost boost going home the other day(loud pop like a boost pipe went,not a pipe)new pressure converter and vacuume pipe and freed off the boost actuator and have unlimited boost...at 3500 rpm below that It would be faster to push it.

I'm suspecting the turbo is dead so if anyone is selling one point this way. I've already got a new maf,egr valve and inlet manifold (old egr was stuck solid and blocked up) I did have a fault code for the boost sensor but gave it a clean and haven't had it up again (used Bosch KTS only thing I've used successfully to get any live readings)

Also after a vacuum pipe diagram

Check all the big rubber pipes.hoses for splits. Upper and lower intercooler pipes, intercooler pipe that goes out of the turbo and air inlet pipe from airbox to turbo (it normally splits where the jubilee clip secures the pipe to the turbo).

It was the other pressure converter on the back of the manifold
