condensation etc in exhaust pipes cause it

It seems to be more than normal condensation. I recently realized that the p28 ecu that was put in my car is not compatable with my secondary runners in my preludes intake manifold and am curious to see if that has caused some damage

White smoke usually tends to be a good mixture of fuel. Maybe you are running too rich though. I would lean it out a little bit and see if that does anything. What kind of white smoke is it though? White smoke that stays in the air for a while or white smoke that doesn't stay in the air for very long at all?

White smoke went away after driving it a few miles. I let my car sit for a couple days and seems to just be condensation after all. It was fairly thick though the first time I started my car. It must have been alot of condensation but car is running fine and did a compressioin check and turned to be fine.
