He's looking for issues that could cause idle problems is my best guess.

Also how loud is your wastegate.

Check for vac leaks for...could be why the car dies. i would say check the tubes around your BOV...

Also white smoke is never good! thats coolant! I doubt it's your headgasket, but if you are actually boosting 12-14psi, maybe you killed it ?
