Default Turbo/Coolant pressure

Whats the chance of a turbo pressurising the coolant system?

More likely to be a head gasket, but it would be theoretically possible for a faulty turbo to leak into the cooling system.

It was just a weak spring clip on turbo feed, fitted a proper jubilee clip all OK.
