White smoke only on start up?

He guys I always thought it was normal for white smoke to come out of your exhaust if you were catless and it was cold outside but after searching ppl say white smoke is never good. I then checked everything, coolant,oil etc etc and EVERYTHING looks fine. It only does this when warming up when it is warmed up it stops. You think it can be from the test pipe and my tune being to rich? Because i was tuned on a HFC but just recently switched to a testpipe. I will provide a picture below.

Also I don't know if it makes a difference but the smoke does not just vanish it sorts of "hangs around" then vanishes.

Condensation in the the exhauast maybe. I am catless and I don't have any white smoke. I am in south east Louisiana and it doesn't get too cold down here so I don't know if that would have anything to do with it.
