Finished my project, but a few issues. Options

So, I took the car out on test drive to see how it would run and to get my exhaust done. I know I wasnt supposed to hit boost, so I tried to keep it down. Well after shifting is my bov suppose to go off? Even if I dont hit boost? So after this, hoping I didnt hit boost, because my boost gauge didnt even go into boost. So am I okay? Well any way my car started smoking so I checked under the car and I sprung a leak with the coolant lines. I'll have to redo the lines tomorrow, but Im just a little worried I messed it up.

Okay, its been a few days since the turbo install and now I'm a little concerned with some problems. I have scheduled some dyno time on Monday, but need some help on diagnosing some issues.

1. I keep getting white smoke out of my tail pipe. I'm a little concered with the head gasket now, but I don't get any of that milky stuff in my oil or have oil in my coolant lines.

2. I looked on the compressor side of the turbo and spotted a tad bit of oil. So I just whiped it up with my finger.

3. At idle, how come my oil pressure gauge is reading at 40psi? SHouldn't it be like 20? And after getting my exhaust done, I noticed that my idle would fluctuate and my oil pressure gauge would bounce up and down.

4. How come at idle I am at like 2K rpm. My boost/vacuum gauge is reading a little over 20 vac.


Any help would greatly be appreciated. btw, I am not tuned YET.
