Post blown turbo?

Ok so I just bought an audi a4 1.8t. I realize it doesn't have anything for power. When I hit the gas it takes for everrr to get to 5 grand and when I'm driving I do not hear nor feel any turbo kick in.

Check underneath if there is a leak in your turbo, a black pipe near the front of the car, you'll need to take the belly pan off. It should be dry as a bone.

if your turbo was blown you would know. You most likely just have a boost leak.
