Exhaust puffs a bit of smoke when reved up. Help I made a exhaust video yesterday for a member on here. I watched the video I made. After the car was running for a few minutes, maybe 5. I reved up the car a few times. The exhaust would puff a bit of white smoke with a blue tint. Is this normal for a car with headers and a catless ory? It doesn't smoke on start up. Any info or help would be great!

Check the PCV valve to see if it's soaked in oil. A catch can will help keep the oil out of the intake. Hope it's the PCV system as that's a common problem for modded cars and is cheaper to resolve.
If that is your problem run some MCCC after you install the catch can.

52,000. I went out to the garage with the wife. Started the car, no smoke. Let it run for awhile. The only smoke there was, was a white condensation smoke. I think it's from the cold. It's only 48* out. My daily driver does the same thing.
Anyways, I had the wife rev the car, no smoke, just the white condensation. It evaporated as soon as it left the tail pipe. I didn't see any blue smoke. The vid must have made it look blue. I have a cheap pos 4mp camera.
