UK decat pipe

i have put a decat pipe and k&n filter and had a remap on my 07 kuro , this was done about two weeks ago the power is great but when it is at idle revs it seems to smoke a bit and is very smelly, is this normal or is there something wrong with it any feed back will be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks

Dude ... this is simply not true.
A retune will do nothing to reduce the stink
