Unhappy I going to kill something... (rant + need help)

My car sense I got it back from the shop has been smoking. At first I thought the turbo was bad, so I swapped it out. The car continued to smoke but I figured it was just burning off the oil that the other turbo shot though the engine. Now, its still smokeing. I was noticeing that my car has been getting louder over the last week and I could hear the turbo spool realy loud too. I found that one of the bolts on the down pipe had come off. Wile I was done there I saw that the header bolts where loose and the turbo bolts that hold the turbo to the header were loose too. I retightend all the bolts and replace the ones that were missing. Now its still just as loud!! WTF! Oh and on top of that some how one of the coolent lines that feed the TB had a pin whole in it, so I pluged it. It didn't effect the idel or anythng else. The only thing it did was change the color of the smoke out the back? I'm so pissed right now.
