Turbo = not going above white line indicates no boost (0 psi). This is different than base-boost (5 psi, usually mid-yellow). No boost could be dead BPV (internal diaphragm could be torn -- pull end off T-fitting, still keeping other end attached to tip of BPV and suck on it -- no resistance = dead), vaccuum leak somewhere, charged-air hosing detached somewhere (boost is being released to atmosphere), wastegate stuck open.
Radio = check fuse first. If good, then more than likely, CD player is shot. You can find them on eBay often, but better to replace stereo system with a much-better aftermarket one. It's not that difficult to install one yourself (saves $$), and Crutchfield.com has the oem connectors to plug into the exisiting wiring harnesses.
