Default cosworth help and hi

hi everybody this is my first post.
i fitted my mates water pump today on his 1992 4x4 sapphire cossie.
i removed the cambelt to make it easier and when retiming and fitting i didnt time up the aux pulley as i thought this was set by the ecu, but anyway this wouldnt of been a mile out.
after refitting and checking everything we started it up and i went for a quick run round the block, everything was cool, infact it was so cool i went for another quick run.
on the way back the car started missing and popping when the boost started coming in and then wasnt running well at all.
ive rechecked the timing and the crank and the 2 cam marks are perfect, i moved the aux pulley slightly so it matched the guide on this forum, and now it wont even start lol!!
now im not sure if its something that ive done or not.

there is a sensor screwed to the top of the standard intercooler, with 3 small pipes that go to the turbo/actuator, and 1 of these pipes has snapped off the plastci on the sensor so is not connected, ive forgot what this is called, does anybody know what would happen if 1 of the pipes was not connected?

i just hope tmmw goes better.
andy
