It might be one of the hoses or tubes which transferes the air or boost from the turbo unit to the air intake manifold has been cutoff or cracked so there is no boost anymore going back to the BOV or the manifold

Yes if everything else still is ok.........car drives normally just no boost, likely a charge pipe popped off.

Are the charge pipes beaded? That would prevent future problems with charge pipes popping off
