whats up peeps? So today i finished changing the turbo manifold gasket an the inlet gasket, before the car sounded loud but it would boost perfect, now that i have the exhaust leak fixed, for some reason there is smoke coming out from or around the turbo, my car doesnt boost, any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance

so last night i discovered that i had boost leaks so i made sure there were fixed, i woke up this morning an i tested the car an it was great until i picked up boost, as soon as i did the couplers for my fmic would pop off this happened 2 to 3 times now everything is nice an tight, but now the car idles really low; an wen i step on the gas pedal it wants to die; an if i floor the gas pedal it revs up to 3 or 3.5 k an dose not pass that; also forgot to add that when i unplug the maf it idles the same it makes no difference, if any of you have any idea plz plz help. thanks
