Default A Little Bit of Smoke Coming Out of The Exhaust

Blew my engine once, got it rebuilt with pistons, rods and lowered the compression. Its tuned but has a little bit of smoke coming out of exhaust at idle and more noitcable when i shift if I accelerate fast. The smoke is not blue or black. Even during idle, on a nice summer afternoon, you can kind of see smoke out of my exhaust. Is this normal for boosted b16's? Thanks.

not normal for any motor, but not unnormal for a freshly built motor.

have your rings seated? how many miles on the build?
