Please Please help me...

Ok, well i think i might have blown my motor and turbo or jsut my turbo. I need your help. The turbo spool's but it doesnt make boost. The car is extreamly slow. I have a B18c1 and it seems slower then that motor should be. My BOV doesnt go off. and the car takes for ever to hit red line. If you need anymore info that i cant think of right now just let me know.

could be both...check and see if there is oil leaking from around the BOV or any of the compressor piping. do a leak down test and a compression check

the pipe that goes from the turbo to the front mount. I call it a down pipe.....it was completly hangin there so no air was going to the turbo so it wouldnt build boost and the bov wouldnt go off.
