So today I drove my car and discovered it wasnt making any boost. Went back home and found that my upper intake gasket had pushed out and my passenger side turbo was not spinning at all. Im not able to spin the turbo even with my fingers. Pulled the turbo off and and found small traces of water on the exhaust wheel side. My buddy suggest its a blown head gasket but car doesn't overheat and havent seen any issues of it losing coolant. I checked the driver side turbo and it spins fine. Both turbos are fed from a tee from where the oil pressure sensor should be. Any ideas of what could be the problem.
