Help? please!!!

Ok well car was running decent before i sent the injectors out to get cleaned turns out one of them was leaking so i was happy, i go to put everything back together and start the car and i forget the coolant line to the BAC is plugged so the car runs for liek 15 seconds like that and then i remember and shut her right off, Also i had installed the ARC tmic and i noticed it wasn't fitting right so i took that off and put the stock TMIC back in for times sake and i crank it and notice that the clamp isn't clamping well on the TMIC and i look into the IC and see coolant, also i see coolant in the turbo down below, so i'm like weird, i hook everything back up turn it ok and go to boost a lil and it takes a huge dive as soon as i try to boost, so i try it again then all seems well, when i get home i pull in pop the hood and see there is coolant on the intake and around it and the radiator sounds like its bubbling, but the temps were fine on the gauge and put it back in and all, the car had a tough time with idling but i had forgotten to plug the BAC connector in so i figured that was why it had a tough time idling. But i'm wondering why there was coolant in the turbo and the IC, it wans't that way when i took everything apart? could i have crossed a line whats going on here?

I THINK i figured out what happened but welcome to others input, when i didn't have the hose to the BAC plugged in i think all the coolant dumped into the BOV while the car was on which caused it to go into the charge pipe, and when i hit boost that one time all that coolant was there until the BOV shot it out and that would explain the coolant on the intake, and i think the gurgling from the rad is a air pocket that needs to be kinked out, well i'm 100% sure it is we'll see tommorow.
