dude Ghettodyne is standalone engine management. It will run as rich or as lean as you program it to.

usually black smoke comes from running it rich. White or blue smoke is oil/coolant burning. I don't think white smoke has anything to do with ghettodyne.

i know its not oil and if it was coolant why would it stop after 20 sec and the cars runs fine

every engine is different. if you're that worried about it and you're not sure then have a mechanic take a look at it. :P

Probably just moisture in the air or from having gas thats been sitting in your tank for a while. Not to worry.

Heh, call me crazy, but do you think it might be your turbo spilling into your charge pipes and you're burning it up?

..check your charge pipes and see if they're greasy.
