If you blew a hole in your motor, that probably wasn't overboost, but a problem with the fuel/air/ignition mix. If you shot ridiculous amounts of boost, it would lift the head or blow the head gasket before tearing a chunk out of the motor itself.
No, this is a faulty install. Sounds like they screwed up the vacuum lines if the BOV is opening at idle (under vacuum). If that's the case, they most likely screwed up the vacuum line for the wastegate. Perhaps they used the same vacuum source for both?
Gem is right, this is a risk with TC's. They are little more sensitive to misinstallation. The reward is that you can get oodles more power out of them with less boost, when they are installed correctly.
Sucks man, I hope the dealer acknowledges its screw up and accommodates you.
