Default what happened to my turbo?!!!

i just arrived home and on the way my car was normal, just my dizzy gone crazy on me for two days and didnt replace it, i have a d15b vtec on a rex with IHI turbo, i stopped at a traffic light and after it i started to hear some whstling noise from the turbo, i look at my boost gauge and its not going more than 0psi, what just happened?! did my turbo die?!

the turbo might have some shaft play and rubbing on the inside of the housing and that will cause it not to boost.

Check all of your charge pipes, you may have blown something (like the coupler as mentioned above) off...
