Those are codes for your Turbo one is a malfunction code the other is an overboost code. Seriously stop driving the car and check out what is going wrong . If your turbo blew up it could dislodge metal into your engine and or oil both would not be good. If you don’t know enough to work on it yourself or troubleshoot it take it to someone who does.

I had similar when my stock diverter valve came unplugged, but with no CEL.

I had to check for saved codes - but verifying the stock diverter is plugged in is pretty easy. If you get your grubby lil hands on the plug and its loose, snap that bad boy back into place.

I mention this because there's a 99% chance you unplugged the dv to install the DV+ unless you are some sort of crazy wizard ninja with 4 arms. You also might want to occasionally lubricate the dv+, they can get gummed up.
