Default White smoke on start up

Mods are in my sig. Whenever I start up my car the drivers side exhaust pipe blows white smoke pretty bad. The passenger side does to, but just a little bit. I read that its probley just condensation because I am running an ory. It goes away once the car is up to operating temp. Is it condensation? What do you guys think?

If your coolant level isn't coming down and your oil appears normal then its probably just condensation.

yes and especially since the drivers side pipe is the one that receives the most direct flow.
