Aftermarkect exhaust Burning?

Hey i just installed the AA signature axel-back and there is the bluish smoke that is coming out of the exhaust and smells like burning rubber??? Im not burning oil because my stock exhaust didnt do that 5 mins ago... so what is happening?

Is the muffler(resonance chamber) just breaking in?

I think that sounds about right if the exhaust is brand new, there may be a little bit of residue etc left from the manufacturing process that's burning off. It should go away pretty quickly.

Completely normal...gaskets sealing, residue burning off, etc...your stock exhaust did this when brand new, you may not remember it, but during the first few miles every time the car was parked from a drive, one could smell the new exhaust components being "broken in".
