smoke?
I bought an '04 civic LX coupe last august, since then I put on a Megan racing muffler (stock piping), and a 2.25" cold air intake and switched to redline synthetic oil after I put 5k miles on the car. I just passed the 10k mile mark last week, and I noticed a light blue smoke comes out of my muffler when I am accellerating. Any ideas?

Blue smoke = Oil burning
Run a compression test see if any of your rings are bad. I don't know why this would happen to a car with only I/E, unless your engine is a lemon.
Your best bet is to put your stock exhaust and intake on and take it in for warranty work.
