is this specific for 997 tt, as my C4S 2008 didn't do that....? although it has the same engine lay out......?

haven't seen it on my 997tt but my 987 boxster does it occasionally. somewhat embarassing in front of a crowd. dealer stated inherent with "boxer" design.

Nothing to worry about. Have it on my 996TT (same engine as yours), did NOT have it on my normally aspirated C2.
Please be advised that it's not always both sides that will smoke at the same time. Can also happen on only 1 side....

Thank you all, I feel better

White Smoke= NORMAL
Blue Smoke= NORMAL(only for a couple puffs)

But if your car is smoking blue smoke for 30-60sec thats a problem
