Water out of exhaust?

hey guys,

I have a 05 evo 8 and i have the simple bolt ons.
Drop in filter
Greddy sp2 exhaust
ported 02
ported manifold
ported hotside
Muse LICP
and a MBC

When ever i start the car it spits out water. After its warmed up on the temp gauge it still spits out water? When i drive it then the water disappears. So my question is is that bad? When water is coming out of the exhaust it blows white smoke. Not alot but enough to notice it. Its like when you wake up on a cold day and drive ur car u see smoke coming out of the exhaust. Im worried if there is a issue with the car because of the water coming out. With all my other cars never had a water issue so wanted to see if u guys are getting the same thing?

let me know
thx

Condensation. nothing to worry about man. white smoke is just water turning to steam from exhaust temp.

^ What he said, I dont know what cars you have had before but with turbo the exh gas runs hotter than N/A cars (generally speaking). The water coming out in liquid form is just condensation form when your car cooled off the previous night. The white smoke coming out is steam.

CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O....water is a byproduct of the combustion reaction
