yea there is smoke coming out..but its not like really thick smoke or anything..
would this have anything to do with the header connecting to the stock cat..i believe there is a slight leak where the gasket is because the donut gasket was too big for the stock cat flanges..so basically i can see the donut gasket if I were to look in between the flanges for the header and cat converter.
