100% wrong. If the ALDA is intact, but receives no boost pressure, the fuel enrichment is cut way back. Partly to help emissions, partly to provide a safety if the turbo fails (that's how the switchover valve works).
Removing the ALDA or defeating it will remove the enrichment cutback. With the OP's engine having the ALDA intact, but the lines broken off, the enrichment is in "safety" mode essentially deliberately designed to prevent the turbo from spooling.
