white smoke during acceleration

here is what i got no smoke at idle, white smoke on take off and accelerating, no smoke when cruising, a little puff of white/black smoke at start up. this all started about 3 months ago i noticed a little here and there some white smoke. so checked my turbo and it is all tight still,(been down that road) now it has just gotton crazy before with all my mods you could black out the streets now the same big clouds just completely all white. but the power is still all there and there are no harsh vibrations, and it idles fine, every now and then it has to turn over a couple of extra times before it starts the i get a big puff of white/black smoke. my stock fuel filter started to leak so i bypassed it about three weeks ago, i took the short soft hose off of the bottom of the fuel filter and ran it straight to my lift pump with an inline filter. i am not sure if that is even the right way of doing this but i can't find any diagram of our fuel system to locate what all the fuel lines to the filter house and cp3 do. the 140 hp injectors were pulled out about 10 months ago and the stock ones put back in due to a stock cp3 and two boxes plus injectors dosn't work so great. so i don't know if the injectors are the problem or my fuel line setup? but here is the kicker every 1 out of 3 start ups or so i have no white smoke all coal black just like it always has been then after a while of running maybe 45 min of better it slowlly turns back to white. if there are any questions about what i am saying or trying to say please ask because i feel like i am at a dead end(until something breaks).

thanks
eric

oh yea did i mention how embarrasing it is when everyone knows your truck when you go through town and they know you have alot of power so they always challenge you and all you got when you go by them is white smoke pouring out of your stacks. it sucks
