Turbo problem

[Butternuts]

I just recently upgraded to hard IC pipes and installed a greddy BOV and injen CAI and for about a week I was dialing my BOV in (First time ive ever done any moding so it took me a while to get it dialed in correctly) and my car was running great for a while but as of a couple days ago I noticed it felt very sluggish and then after listening and really feeling the engine it seems im not boosting at all. I used to boost around 3000RPM (Depending on how I was driving) and now there is no difference even if I ride it to 5000RPM. Is there anyway I hurt my turbo with these mods? (As I understood it these mods were a healthy upgrade for my turbo) Is it possible that my turbo seized up, and would the car even run if it had? I don't have a check engine light on and the car seems normal other than the no boost thing.

get a boost gauge.

do you hear any turbo spool? do you hear any blow off? maybe you have your bov set to looslely and your just venting all your boost pressure? Do you fell like your getting no power? less power?

double check all the hard pipe connections, if they are all good, then take off the intake and check the shaft in the turbo for excessive play. There should be very little to no play at all.

The turbo always seemed very quiet to me and with the intake all I can hear is the sucking sound it makes. If anything my BOV is too tight, sometimes I still get the turkey sound. Plus when I had it looser than it is I ran into idling issues. Definatly getting less power.

what does your boost gauge say, if you have one? what is your vac? maybe you have a leak...if you dont have a boost guage, you'll need one..

.... get a boost gauge. This will make problem solving this issue MUCH simpler. Theres no reason not to have a boost gauge, without one you could be dangerously close to blowing an engine and not even know it.
