Fallen off if it's not boosting at all.
I had a similar thing and realised my actuator arm had come unhooked, do a couple of visual checks on the turbo itself and check everything looks right

Theres only really one way it can be fitted... Fitted it... Took it a run, went great boosting a lot better, dump valve sounded great... Then was almost, home and it will hardly boost now but runs fine and ticks over fine, it will go to about 0.2 bar, tryed unplugging the senser or turbo to see if it was that, engine management came on so don't think it's that... Tryed maf senser, same again, then air flow meter same again so don't think it's that.... Checked all boost pipes, all fine. Checked vaccums seem to all be fine... Dumb valve seems to be open the hole time apart from when u rev it... Iam out of ideas, out it on computer... No faults

If that's the only thing which has changed it must be that.

Could be that it's not seated properly and is allowing the boost to leak past it.
