Question Smoking Problem

Every time I start my car it somkes. The smoke is white and it does not smell sweet. It doesn't smoke just is the morning, it smokes every time I start it. If also smokes sometime during idle. I had a engine rebuild about 3,500 miles ago. Could it be that my car has a lot of bolt-ons and a stock ecu? I have been running about 7 lbs. of boost according to my autometer guage. Could it be my engine having problems or maybe my turbos?
Thanks,
Erik

Smoke is normal upon start up, as long as it is white and not sweet smelling. The car is just burning off excess oil that is injected with the fuel.

Could it be because my car is not fine tuned yet?
