Smoke coming out tail pipe

Have a 2008 Mini Cooper s, just changed plugs and plasma injectors, now it's blowing smoke out of tail pipes when it's in idle and I give it gas, any one have any idea why this is napping, I'm still getting plenty of power and everything seems fine, just blowing a lot of smoke

what is a plasma injector?

Are you sure it's smoke and not condensation?
