Freaking out! White smoke, stingy smell and deippling sound
 
Hi all, this will be my first post as a relatively new FD owner.

I just got my car back after having swapped my blown turbos. It has been running fine and still is, however there are some problems i dearly hope are minor ones.

So, on startup there is some white smoke on for just a minute or two(keep in mind that it is -5 to -20 celcius here)
It start nicely within a few seconds and the amount of smoke quickly diminish.
Now I know I have a leak somwhere in the A/C since only the heater works and not the cold air.
But as soon as the engine reaches operating temp and heat starts to flow, smoke starts to come up from the hood combined with an awfully stingy smell inside the cabin. It litterly burns in my nose.
Popping the hood shows smoke coming from the drivers side just about where the turbos are.
I can hear a drippling but no sign of fluid on the floor.
Coolant seems to be leaking as i have to refill it every time i take it for a drive.

As I said I am new to this car and community, so i might have stupid answers to your follow ups. Be kind :)

Also sorry if I am unclear, english is not my first language
