Well just last night my car blew the front lower turbo coolant return hose(the small lower one on the front of the engine) and decided it would over heat on me but i caught it in time and i threw the clutch in and the car stalled completly as i rolled off the road.

The engine bay was covered in coolant but i was lucky and caught it early enough not to send the gauge to the red.

now we filled it back up with coolant and cleaned it off and the car runs fine until about 5 minutes after it has warmed up fully.

After the 5 or so minutes the car seems like the timing goes way off and sounds like a damn Tractor and full boost comes at 4500 instead of 3300.

Anyone able to give me some good ideas as to what it might be.

Thanks

Once you loose coolant the guage wont read right as there is no coolant for the sender to measure. You have possibly overheated it enough to blow the head gasket. Tolerances change once warm so it might run fine until it heats up but then leaks after that. Try doing a compression test and a CO2 test on the cooling system to be sure.

Hope im wrong
