HI there and Thank You for choosing NICO we are glad your here!

It sounds like you might have an exhaust manifold crack or a seal that is not seated properly. I would take it back to the place that fixed it. You should have a basic warranty for quality of work issues, like an exhaust leak.

Good Luck,

Keep us posted.
