Need help quick

Alright today my car started acting very weird. When i sit in neutral and let my car idle is sounds as if it was cammed. It goes up and down like its reving itself and i have a check engine light on. I have no idea what could be causing this and when i go to knock and watch the spark it goes from 0-20 constantly while sitting in neutral. Also when i stopped and pulled over i saw my charge piping on my turbo was off and im not sure if this would cause anything. The temp is around 10F or so

From those symptoms I kinda have a slight idea of what it "could" be but first find out what the cel is for before I give u my $0.02

Re attach the CP and then reset the VCM to clear the BS trim data from the pipe coming off.
