I feel like a blown headgasket is the go to diagnostic of these cars. I was told very much the same many years ago and it was a split water pipe and a dodgy MAF sensor. Took about 10 minutes for someone with knowledge to diagnose.
The best specialist in the country isn’t far from the places you’re taking. I also would assume that you must of paid more than tuppence for the car as they aren’t cheap these days. It’s got to be worth getting an expert to give it the once over. If it is dead, I recon he will even have a good contact for getting rid of that’s the case.

I recently swap a na for a tt.
I was having issue starting the engine (Injectors were clogged) I've fix that
I started it this afternoon, engine seems to work fine.
but this is my first turbo car and i just want to know if boost is normal...
on idle i have 20 psi of vacuum,
I can't put the car in gear already so I rev the engine on neutral like 4000 rpm and only get 0 psi on stock turbo is this normal?
will i get more boost when a gear is engage?
