Couple points...
You're not going to get very far with the stock computer. You need a turbocoupe ECM, VAM, and fuel injectors. You might be able to get it to run ok off boost, but when you are into boost, your timing and fuel will be way off. As long as you are content with a low power output, or a lot of redneck engineered band-aids, you'll be ok.
Next time you fire up the car when running thru the turbo, just unplug the connector off the IAC. If that doesn't make a difference, next I would remove the IAC all together, and do something to plug the holes so that you know they are blocked. Also, don't just think the throttle body is closed, use your hand and force it in the closed position. Dosconnect the throttle cable. Basically, a lot of extra air is getting into the engine, and you have to figure out where & why. What is different about going thru only the MAF, and then putting the turbo in the system? Are you using any different pipes? Connectors? Go through each component.
EGR shouldn't affect it at all. EGR recirculates exhaust gas back into the cylinders are cruise conditions in order to reduce NOx emissions. EGR does not function at idle or WOT. Yes, it could fail in a way to cause a big vacuum leak, but it can also fail in a way that it will never work. Either way, since you no longer have it, it doesn't matter. What does matter is to be absolutely sure the flange on the intake manifold is blocked off and air tight.
Unless that turbo is extrememly tiny or you have an auto tranny, I seriously doubt you'll be building boost while revving with no load. Possible, but quite unlikely.
