coolant leak(water pump)

i drive a 99 9-3 se HOT and have a coolant leak somewhere near the passenger side tire. When the coolant leaks, sometimes it lands on the engine and literally boils to the point where there is steam coming from the front right side of the hood. The coolant leak lands on the oil filter but mostly on the plastic piece that is under the passenger side of the car towards the back of it. I purchased a water pump and am about to do the job but before i do it. Is this the only possible thing that can be causing my coolant leak? Besides for this issue, my car chugs when the turbo reaches near the red and it used to be worse but i replaced my pvc nipple, bushing and the hose from the throttle body to the pvc valve to the nipple. The chugging got better but it still does it when i completely floor the gas pedal. I need help! Finally, i want to remove the turbo silencer in the car but i cant seem to find which hose it is in. There are two hoses underneath the car behind the intercooler. Is it the one closer to the intercooler or farther away? or is that not even the right location? just a few minor problems, nothing compared to what my old 96 900s had. All your imput in appreciated
