Default Help with smoking!

Ive got a b16 stroked to a 1.7 with 92gsr crank and rods...the motor is fresh ...roughly 9,500 miles on it..when it was built everything was brand new....doesnt leak oil nor does it burn it...i have a nitrous express wet kit 50 shot installed on it and i tuned it on our dyno and the a/f is rich on the gas and on the motor its about 12.1 .... my concern is in the morning i start it up about 15-20 mins before i leave the house for proper warm-up .... when i leave on accel and decel it smokes and withish -grayish color and sorta smeels like oil and sorta like fuel....my car does not burn oil so the smoke is not from that..does anyone have any other suggestions besides valve seals or headgasket ?!?!?!?

Well, it can only be three things.

White=coolant
Black=fuel
Bluish/grey=oil

Either your coolant or your oil is low or you're running too rich, you decide.
