My car is idling extremely low and I don't know what is wrong with it. It feels like it's about to stall out. Also, got it looked at last week and found out the wastegate is stuck open...I'm getting that fixed soon but I didn't know if that had anything to do with the low idling. Does anyone know what I can do to fix it?
 
Get a new wastegate and go from there. And if the wastegate don't fix it, you might need to clean you egr valve.

Same here, I check everything and I'm waiting to install a new WGA I just received to see if it fixs that low idling crap.

If your problem is still there afterwards, check the EGR first, then IAC valve or vaccum line leaks.
