The white smoke doesn't happen often, and it's usually when I get moving after a cold start. Some reading points out to to condensation. Other than that, my oil and water reservoir is good. Next oil change is coming up next week so I'll see if there's any fuel smell in the oil. I've only had the test pipes installed for about 3 months.

I had the hot start issue well before the MBC installation, and I pressed on trying to get updates from GTM. No response. It has been 34k miles since the installation, and I dealt with this almost everyday. Starting to feel the rough idle lately as well, so I might do a compression test the next time the spark plugs get pulled. So I'll try to do some sanity checks before getting it tuned since the goal of switching to a 3" exhaust setup is a bit distant.
