I had a very similar situations in my Supercharged trucks...I could hear air rushing out and NO power. Hose was split way in the back and I had to remove the upper part of my engine to get to it.
Good Luck.

I had this with the Audi A6 2.5TDi when i bought it, i could hear a hairdryer type noise and the mpg was 15. I discovered that the hose from the turbo was loose with the jubilee clip rattling about, tightened the clip and the car was transformed..
It will be something simple, i'd visit the garage who fitted the turbo.

Sound like the diaphragm is split before you can hear air leaking out. The actuator will fail in the safe position i.e you will get no boost pressure. They must have damaged it while fitting your new turbo. Deffo take it back to the garage.
Quite hard to damage these unless they have wound off the tension on the rod. Doing this will twist the diaphragm inside and can split it.

Not suprised it 'hissed' at that rpm. It would make an m5 seem like a horse and cart.
