Mositure

Was wondering how long everyone elses cars smoke in the morings from mositure? I let mine warm up for 9 mins today before work drove around 8 miles and it still was smoking when I got to work. Granted it is a 19 degree morning lol. I have a 3'' catless downpipe so I guess that comes into play too

I never paid attention to my old cobalt to see how it smoked. I just know this one huffs it out in the morning and takes forever to stop

^This. Its water vapor and the colder it gets the more it will do it. Think of it this way, when its cold out do you stop "smoking" when you breathe once you "warm up"? I hope you guys aren't trying to warm up your cars to the point where it goes away. The only reason less comes out is because your car slows its idle once it warms up a bit and when the actual exhaust piping gets warm it helps dissapate the vapor.
