Not since just after I installed the H pipe. I'd love to hear a clip of your exhaust.

Yes I definately noticed more smoke. It is just becasue you don't have those cats blocking and burning alot of it. Don't worry about it...just enjoy the smell.

No you shouldnt have smoke coming out. Your either out of tune or your valve guides/seals are worn and burning oil.

To be a little more clear. When its cold out and/or your car is not warm yet...yes the volume of smoke will be more as there is no restriction. However...once the car is good and warm you should not see any smoke. If you do all of the time...make sure you are not losing too much oil or coolant.

2) its not really smoke just exhaust, i was just surprised at how much it looked like their was, it was a little chilly outside so i guess thats probably part of it
