Smoke after geting my MP.

After installing my MP I noticed thatI get lots of blue smoke (burnt oil?) out my exhuast on cold startups. I mean ALOT. When Is tart my car up inthe morning and let it warm up in the garage. ina few minutes I get back to the garage and theres a blue haze that has filled the entire garage, all from my exhaust.

I dont' seem to be going through oil any faster then I always have. Should I be gettign worried?

same thing happened to me when I installed my mp............on my last engine. Do you notice it smoking upon deceleration or downshifting ?? What about when you just let it sit and idle ?? Any smokie ??

I gutted my main cat and it did increase in smoke on cold start but very VERY mild. It could be your turbos going out the door. It seems teh main cat does soak up most of the 'smoke' being putout.

Midpipes will spit some carbon and smoke when you shift under WOT. Its normal even though it looks kinda dirty. The extra smoke on startup is just the crap that the cats usually filter out when they're on the car. As long as you're readings are good, you should be ok.
