Default Mkiii Help!!!

i just upgraded to a fmic with a 1g dsm bov
and after i put everthing on and went for a test drive right when i went into boost (7-8psi) it blew off the lower hose.
after i put the lower hose back on the car then idled funny and from then on never went into boost over 1psi
did notice the oil presue was low so i added some oil and drove it again and the idle returned to almost normal but still no boost
it feels like driving a heat soaked turbo veh but it isnt because i just put the fmic on
car is set for 9psi and the bov is running off a vacume hose off of the intake mani from the prong right behind the TB
i feel that the turbo may have blown
but any advise / assistance will be greatly appricated

if the turbo is blow whats a good factory replacement for the stock manifold, any good performance ones?

thanks
-Eiki
