Trouble understanding your post. You need to scan your car for codes.

If your turbo blew up then you could have eneded up sucking metal fragments into the engine causing additional damage. From your description, which is not very helpful, it sounds like the cpu is putting the engine in "limp" mode. Who swapped the turbo? If you can't pull codes (car doesn't need to run for that but you do need a code reader) than I would go back to the person that did the turbo swap. It is possible they messed that up somehow.
