Spits black droplets at start up

I have had my share of electrical issues, which are now solved. Thanks Tom for all of the harnesses. My concern now is at start up, there is a fine vapor mist that has small black particles in it. Once it warms up, it goes away and quite frankly, the car runs great. I have a 2.4 t w MFI, heat exchangers and a Bursch exhaust. It is making a mess of my garage, but other than that, should I be concerned? Thanks in advance, Mark

Condensation in the exhaust system. Do you let it get hot when you run it?

That is a relief. I let it warm up, if that is what you mean. I haven't gotten it up past 190 deg however, since putting the new muffler on. Next weekend, however I will be taking it to little talledega, and will certainly bring it up to temperature then.

My 2.8 with Haltech controlled TWM throttle bodies does the same thing.
