bought 1987 Turbo II and Does not Start

Well Guys I just Purchased a non running 87 Turbo II and not can't figure out what the hell is wrong with it. The car is getting Fuel & Spark But everytime I try to start it it just cranks over and I end up flooding the damn motor. Also there's alot of vacum
lines off near the top of turbocharger. also I think the engine is not getting Compression at all did campresson check but used regular tester and got 0 on leading and trailing. I need help fast car is making me pull my hair out.

its a blown motor....rebuild or buy another one. it can't run on half an engine. its pretty ******* obvious answer since you discovered the answer yourself. 0 compression was the keyword.
