Antifreeze shooting from exhaust on 2017 sidekick

This is my first turbo so I'm not really sure where to start or if it's just spitting out excess antifreeze from the initial fire up. I have a about 5 minutes of running it in the shop, and noticed a few drops of antifreeze where the turbo meets the muffler after I shut it down. Any insight would be appreciated thanks.

Sure Its antifreeze?? Im betting its oil, They all have some oil come out the exhaust after install.

Positive it's antifreeze, I have noticed the oil as well but kinda figured it was a given Thanks for the response though. Guess I'll give Boondocker a call in the morning.

Any chance you got the coolant lines mixed with the oil lines? Or is that kit a oilless turbo?
