Is the compressor still connected to the turbine? i.e., shaft snapped. Shouldn't be too hard to find an air leak. Double check your air cleaner also.
The boys at Jiffy Lube put the wrong one in my brothers flowerstroke a few years ago and the turbo sucked the whole thing into the intercooler. Some small pieces made it to the engine but there was no damage there..
