I would start by getting the o2 sensor going again. Maybe check your plugs and wires, and also build a boost leak tester. Here is the link to building your own. It is really easy.

I hope this helps. And if your CEL (check engine light) is on your should go to your local autozone and have them scan your car, it's easy and free. :dsm:

If you read the information in the link provided above it clearly states where to connect the boost leak tester.

To use it, just remove the intake pipe from your turbocharger inlet, and attach this in its' place.
