Befor i go assuming

I want your guys opinion, Ive got the OTTP Stage 3 Not tuned just yet, Ive noticed it dose smoke when i rev the motor up. Mid to high RPMs. my car has a aslight exhaust leak.
Theres no oil or anything of that nature telling me somthings broke or blown. just while i rev it smokes. its white smoke not blue nore black just white. Any Input?

He's probably running the tune from the stage 2 that he has in his signature.

Doesnt white usually mean lean? I'm no expert, but it could be.

Could be either condensation or coolant.

I think i figured out what it is.. My car runs really rich and its smoking white from the engine bay but in the back of the engine bay no performance decrease or anything so i put 2 and 2 together, I have an exhaust leak Prob someware behind the motor maybe headers(while revving my car vibrates the exhaust and such) after i get it tuned im gonna get under there and take care of the annoying rattling. Its white smoke and smells like gas so its just a leak someware in the pipes =p.
