Cracked electrical connector had knocked out the turbos, got it fixed, and it was back to its old self.
Actually, my guess is that the ECU, upon getting bogus signals from whatever was connected to the cracked connector, simply put the entire system into Limp Home Mode. This has nothing to do with the turbos, other than since very little power was being called for, the turbos never really got going.
Modern vehicles do that for zillions of different reasons, ranging from bad connectors, to burned out MAF/MAP sensor, to low fuel rail pressure, to clogging fuel filter, among many, many others. I've experienced it in my Jeep on several occasions, not one of which ever had anything to do with the turbo.
