Blown? OUCH!

This weekend I started my '95 PSD and headed on to the highway. About a mile down the road I went to pass another car. I stepped down on the pedal, the auto trans stepped down, the turbo wound-up and POP! This popping noise started! I pulled over opened the hood and I could here this popping noise comming from the intake. Definetely a non metallic sounding pop-pop-pop. Blown head gasket? Todd
