white smoke coming off pipes with plastic smell
Hello.
Ive installed Innotech exhaust in my car (just the cat back) with black tips. Also just installed the Ess tune. Tonight after some hard acelerations when i pulled over there was massive amounts of White smoke coming out of the exhaust. It smelled like burnt plastic. Any one knows what it could be?No lights came on the dash. I think maybe the tips paint melting?I noticed the black tips are turning light grey. Thanks in advance. |

Could be some surface treatment just burning off the metal. When I put my downpipe on the STi years ago, I had the same issue (heat wrapped). After some miles, everything was back to normal.

I got under the car to see if there was fire. The smoke was cone strictly out of the exhaust pipes.
About the packing or painting of the tips its been a week already since i installed them and i ram the car pretty hard before and no smoke came off. Only thing that changed was the Ess tune. Im gona take the car for another ride and see if it stops. Thanks for the replys |
