Default New arising problem?

Well today I finnally get the last bit of my audi in place, the right tail light. Everything is sweet (except the persistant electrical problem I described before) but today I start it up, let it run for 5 minutes, it turns off (electrical thing) start it back up, and I rev up to 2500-3000 and do that a few times. Then the revs drop to 700 stay there, I see light blue smoke come out of the exhaust, and then something starts smoking out of the engine bay, I look and it looks to be coming out of the turbo/ cat area. I turn off the car, let it cool of for 15 minutes, start it back up everything is fine. I check if the turbo works. It does, feels the same. Although it felt like boost came out of nowhere at 2k rpm (heard the SSSS sound that i hear after 3800k) and then went away, then it started boosting like it normally does. The car is really just killing me here, I want my baby back already, I gave her to my private mechanic to work on for a few days.
