why is my car smoking?
Ok so heres the story. my roomates and i decided to go up to my lemmon (local mountain) to check it out and cruise around. the car ran fine the entire time but i noticed that on the way back i would get puffs of white smoke whenever i accelerated. as we got down into a lower elevation the smoking would stop at lower rpms but when it crossed over it would start to smoke again. the thing i cant really figure out is why there is white smoke coming out when i recently pulled my plugs for a compression test (180 across the board) and the plugs were black. doesnt this mean im running rich? with a compression test done no more than 10 days ago i dont get why it would smoke. i just put on a test pipe, could this be the cause? help me out.
car is a civic hatch with b16b in it.

test pipe would let smoke through the exhaust. my hi flow cat lets it through and it comes out white or whitish blue
