There are four places the turbo can leak, radiator inlet pipe, radiator return pipe, oil inlet pipe, oil return pipe. To just say the turbo is leaking puts quite a short answer to the problem. Identifying what is leaking needs to be done. All four pipes take a 50 cent gasket to attach the pipe to the turbo unit, all four pipes are held onto the turbo unit by two bolt each. Very easy work, only thing one needs to remember is not to tighten the bolts for the pipe to tight because the threads will strip easy and if the threads strip your now screwed. Do it right and everything is good, the pressure sensor is nothing more than a bolt with wires running out of it, unplug the wires unscrew the bolt (pressure sensor) identify if its faulty or its gasket and replace it.
Very cheesy work
Over tightening the turbo pipe bolts is the only thing that could happen, or trying to loosen the bolts but your twisting them the wrong way which over tightens them stripping out the threads. Lefty loosey righty tighty
