Hi Amarin,
I have recorded a video of the turbo charger smoking, while the engine was idle.

It stopped after about 30 mins.
I believe the cooling fluid was not fully circulating in the system, because when I started to push the gas pedal, I heard for a few seconds the liquid going through all the circuit, as if there was some trapped air.
Then I started to drive the car, and it was driving very smooth.
It does no longer smoke and everything seems to run very well.
I just want to say thanks to all the Bricks community for the great help and support you offered me during this project.
It was a long way, given that I had to purchase the exhaust manifold twice, but eventually I got the result I was hoping for.
In a couple of weeks, I will have a long drive, about 4000 Kms, which is the real test :)
Thanks again, and will stay in touch on my next project!
Alex
