10k boost, just tried it oh dear!!
Bought some of this to give it a go, well did exactly what it said on the can didnt want to spray it straight into the turbo so took the air filter off and sprayed it down the pipe. Once done, it said to drive for 10 mins, went down the road and noticed the dump valve sounding flat pulled out of the junction looked in my mirror and couldnt see out the back for all the white smoke it started to misfire so i stopped and then the car died. Re-started it and drove normally still white smoke but not as much dump valve sounded better gave it a good run stopped to look under the bonnet and oil was everywhere must have shoot out from the dump valve defo wasnt the oil cap. Sounds and goes alright now but what the hell was all that about? Did i spray it in the wrong place or what?

More likely that you had oil sitting in your turbo or boost pipes..
The 10k boost possibly pushed it into the turbo and cleaned it out and it could only leave through the d/v and the exhaust..
Also it will smoke a bit mate..
When i cleaned my missus Carb with redex it smoked white s**t for about 10 minutes and seemed screwed until it ran much better..
