After installing my RNR exhaust i had some smoke coming out of the muffler. The color was white/grey. I'm pretty sure it is just anti-sieze and liquid wrench burning off, but i'm curious if you have any other ideas. remember i had to remove my exhaust manifold and turbo to take it to a deburring company to have a broken off bolt removed. This involved emptying and refilling oil and coolant systems. i refilled them according to the haynes manual's instructions, and the engine is not overheating, and oil lvl is good. Thanx ahead of time :)

metal coatings + heat + antisieze + penetrating oil = smelly.

i bled my clutch while putting my DP in, some fluid (alot) got into the downpipe. there was smoke billowing fromt he exhaust.

s wait a few days, yadda yadda. if it still smoker (and its not humid out), you may wanna check her out.
