Smoking at idle

For everyone that has catless long tubes, do you have white smoke at idle. My car is a facelift recently put on long tubes catless and noticed it has white smoke at idle as if it is 20 degrees out, but it's not. Not excessive, but before long tubes there was none. Does it all the time even fully warmed. You guys have this too. Wondering if it's just normal for catless. Car runs great pulls hard idles fine no cels.

Forgot to add running 100 percent e85 not sure if that might have an effect. Ran e85 before long tubes though as well didn't notice it.

No smoke here, LTH catless setup.
Maybe check that your PCV is not plugged up

Normal. Condensation built up is what comes to mind.

I get it randomly, here and there.
