Question WTF poof of brown smoke???

I just got a not so new RB full turbo back on my car and it poofs a big brown cloud every time I take off hard?
It smoked some when I first got it on all the time, but not any more.

You sure its not black? Its probably because the rb system doesnt have a real cat. It just has the presilencer or whatever.

I am now thinking it may be that the extra pressure causes stuff that was built up in it to come loose and shoot out the end. I should have cleaned out the system before I put it on.... oh well...
