Default loss of boost

was playing with a bike today , went to floor the car got thru 3 gears then i suddenly lost power i was runing norrmal fuel with octane booster and was right on the empty(light was on) i thought the actuator rod had came loose on the turbo but it wasnt that power was down till i put some proper optimax in but still feels alittle flat, its still boosting to 1.6bar in 2nd gear but doesnt feel right. i think my uppipe might be blowing but im worried about burst hoses should i be worried or will it be down to the crap fuel

Mine fuel starves in straight line acceleration even with nice low fuel pump pick up as soon as the fuel light comes on.
