Default eg with a b16 smoking....

yeah i got a b16 swapped into my eg. the exhaust recently got disconnected from humongus speed bumps where im from, but i just changed the oil. let it run for a minute, checked the oil. the cap, filter, and plug are all on, but when i took it driving down the road, it started smokinng bad. looked under the car, it was coming from the cat. I took the valve cover off when it cooled down to check the valve gasket, it was fine....

what other possibilities can it be?

What color smoke? White, black, blue?

Any of those can be different things, be more specific.

when you did the oil change, the oil filter is right above the cat. you probably spilt some oil from the filter.
wipe it or let it burn
