Could be a split seam in the turbo intercooler or a leaking intercooler line. If it's hissing when you put the pedal to the metal, the turbo is forcing air out of the leak causing the noise. The ECU may be overcompensating with too much fuel due to the lower manifold pressures, which would cause the smoking and excessive fuel use. Does the your X-type have a boost gauge in the dash? If so, try to get info on the correct pressure and compare it to what you're seeing. I'll bet yours is low. Good luck.
