Default 2006 Turbo V Issues

Hopefully I can get some guidence here. Here is the situation, I purchased and installed the TN Kit on my 2006 Nissan Spec V about 4 months ago. Things have been great.
Well this past weekend my buddy noticed some smoke coming from my exhaust. Over the course of the weekend it progressivly got worse. I scanned my comp and the only code was P0507 which is the idle air control.
Could this be the problem for the smoke, it smokes a little during idle, but under load it is pretty bad. It smells like fuel, and is Whitish/Gray. I checked my oil and it seems good, and checked the coolant and still topped off and running cool. I am at a loss for words. I am hoping that it just needs the code cleared and a dyno run and tune.
The second problem that I ran into today is that The weld for the wastegate broke. I purchased the kit from jesse and turbokits.com, how would I go about getting this replaced under warranty. I also am led to believe I have excessive bearing play in the turbo, I can definately move the compressor/turbine fins just about until they hit the housing.
Any suggestions and help willl be greatly appreciated. Oh and by the way, before the turbo and DP prob, the car ran fine besides a little sluggish (AZ Heat I'm Sure) and smoke. Please help soon cause I am forced to ride my 05 honda CBR in this AZ HEAT.. Thanks again
