how did you "lose your turbos" did they fall off or did the boost (not turbo) just disappear. By the way i they fell off and they are cracked you should replace them because reparing (like welding) could result in a weaker turbo. What

it could be a leak and you should check your engine for anything strange or broken then I might know the problem

Are you still making boost?

Most likely only one of the two is blown. All of the tests to determine exactly what is wrong, and exactly how to do any repairs, are in the TSRMs.
