Zero PSI
Backed over a weird curb and bent the j-pipe on the turbo and lost all boost. New j-pipe, gasket, and OEM intercooler pipes and still no boost. Boost test showed no leaks. Is my turbo done?

Is it possible you pulled a vacuum line that was your boost gauge reference?

If there is no funny noise and the turbo cartridge spins freely your leak is elsewhere.

No power so its definitely not the line to the gauge. Must be the turbo if the system holds pressure. Crap.

try pulling your turbo, I hope it was an OEM turbo because they can be replaced fairly cheap. maybe a good time to upgrade

Is your wastegate stuck open ? Check the actuator arm and related componenets . check to see if the compressor wheel spins freely.
