Blown Turbo??

I have a "00 f-250 powerstroke, just took it for a drive and heard a large pop under the hood when i first took off. Now there is severe loss in power, turb boost gauge reads ZERO and does not budge, and when i got home wife said she also heard pop and a big puff of white smoke out the tailgate. Is the turbo blown?? HELP!!!

Yea sounds like an intercooler boot to me too - and that's about the easiest thing to check for too...

Unless you have done the CCV mod, I would expect to see some oil dripping from the intercooler boots. Now would be the time to clean all that stuff out and do the CCV mod...

AS usual, you guys are correct. It was an intercooler boot. Thanks so much for the help. CCV mod is already done.
