All right when I have Stillen CAI, FI exhaust and got TurboXS test pipes installed yesterday. When I got WOT now there is smoke coming from the exhaust. I'm sure thats normal from the test pipes but some coming from the engine as well?

OK - smoke from exhaust pipes is normal, not because of test pipes, but from the grease used to lubricate the mandrel of the bender. There is a possibility that there is grease on the outside of the pipes as well, and it's just burning off. Is the system and testpipes SS, polished SS or aluminized paint?
To be safe - check your oil level and other fluids, and if the car is driving fine, give it a day or two.

If they are new pipes and/or have a little fluid on them it will burn off. See if it goes away in a day or so.
