What is this pop sound and smoke that happens every time I turn the car on?

Hi all,

I have a 2005 Mazda 6 MPS/ Mazdaspeed 6 that recently had the engine swapped with an engine from a 2009 CX-7 using everything else from the MPS with the exception of the turbo which I bought new. Any idea why this is happening?

I have also collected some data logs via an AP and uploaded it to chatGPT, and it has said that other than the turbo not reaching target boost (reaching 11.5 PSI) the engine is very healthy. Could these issues all be related?
