[Mk2] [Turbo] NO BOOST
I have a rev3 turbo,today i suddenly lost all boost pressure.I pulled away quiet fast and the turbo was working fine and the dump valve sounded off as normal(hks blow off).Then as i changed gear there was no boost.The car has lost all performance and there no blow off sound.The boost gauge does move but never reads more then 0 bars.There been no smoke and the car never uses oil.Any ideas.

Yeah you've blown a hose off 
Maybe the small vac line that goes to the dump valve?

sounds like a bigger hose than that, check the intercooler hoses, had that happen, also, check the BOV, had a HKS let go on me before,

Depends, the stock recirc valve behaves very strangely without that hose connected
