TX Smoking after SR Mid Pipe Install

I have had my SR mid pipe on a for a couple of weeks and I notice at start up there is still a bit of white smoke that last a few seconds. Anyone else experience this?

Its white smoke so I'm not terribly worried just wondering if this is normal. Only other thread I found was from 2004 so i figured I would do a new thread rather than revive that thread.

My car does this for about 10 seconds after start-up.

Nothing to worry about.

I would also say normal I've noticed cars that are running catless of supercat seem to smoke on start up and after high rpms...for a few seconds....not if it starts pouring out smoke all the time u have a problem..but that's pretty much common sense
