Is my turbo shot?

Was doing a pull and the hot side charge pipe popped off from the engine. Put it back on and tightened it very good. Checked all other charge pipe clamps. Everything is tight. But now there is no power, and there is a wooshing sound coming from what sounds like possibly the turbo i think. Is the problem internal with the turbo? Like maybe the wastegate? Everything was working fine before this happened. Any insight is much appreciated. This is a 09 SS/TC Sedan with full bolt ons and Trifecta tune.

Sounds like you still have a leak from one of your connections.

Yep the damn upper charge pipe was off at the intercooler. I'm such an idiot. All is good now. I also did the vacuum delete mod. Thanks.
