Message	on a 1st drive. The hose connections and gaskets didn't have a chance to "glue" themselves in place, so you might have just simply knocked a turbo coupler loose. Does it sound like a wooooo when you boost? If so, you most likely knocked loose the coupler that goes from the turbo to the tube on the pressure side. You can tighten both sides easily. Just go over those types of connections 1st before doing anything crazy like pulling the motor again.
