Update:
I got the fuel pump from FCP ( as always since 2009). I put it and testing since yesterday, and it is really good, the turbo is kicking in and gives good power.
I was thinking my car's turbo needed maintenance for last a couple of months since it wasn't kicking in the way it was used to. However after changing the fuel pump, I realized it's working efficiently. What I am trying to say it seems the old fuel pump had started to give me warnings about its failure for a couple of months however I am the one who didn't see it, because I was blaming the turbo, now I know it was the fuel pump.
I hope this share might help others.
Thanks
