Default to scrap the motor or not?

okay heres the deal like a dumb *** i put a turbo kit on and tried to run it with no managment but a fmu and inline pump with a set of 440 injectors (flame on i deserve it). I tried to get the car to run and off course run it extremly rich. So finally when i relazide the mistake i was making i put the stock injectors back in and tried it well it quit running died on me. Off course it was so rich the oil was filled with gas. So i changed the oil and filter put new plugs in and now it wont even idle it has a ruff idle and will only idle for a second and then cuts off. Also when i checked the compresion it was down to 150,150,120,150 and i know they are low but would the one being that low make it not idle. Just to give the background on the motor it is a sleeved block with 9:1 pistons but the place that did the install turned out to be shady and i think theyre work was less than impressive. Also something else i noticed today was that to rev the car in neutral it would build boost. I thought boost was load dependent and should not be building boost in nuetral. Please help if i should tear down and redo i need to know so i can start soon

I had the same problem. I had a safc ,440ccs and that was it. I was driving and came to a light the car died. I didnt know what happened. I can start it but it will just idle a little then died. That is when I started to tear it down and I am almost finished with my new project.
