Dual Exhaust

I just installed a cat back exhaust with two mufflers and dual tips. Didn't notice right away but now I see that at idle with the car sitting there is smoke (not literally smoke but looks like it cause it's freezing) coming from only the divers side tip. There is pressure from both tips but seems like a little more from the drivers side tip. Is this normal? Did a search on it and nothing came up. Thanks ahead of time.
