Default Exhaust Flow

Alright, after installing my greddy ti-c exhaust, I found out that air is coming out more out of the left exhaust (looking at it directly from behind) than my right. When I cold start my car, the smoke only comes out of the left ... I checked for leaks and there isn't any so far... If anything I thought the exhaust would be more dominant on the right where it splits off, this is getting really confusing

the exhaust gas will take the passage with the least restriction.

If the y is equal diameter, then there should be no difference or even preferential flow out the R. So take a look at the internal diameters of the muffler and see if those are the same.

So I'm going to assume that this is just a strange phenomenon and I should disregard it with no regrets hmm?
