is this a bad thing? I did an internet search and saw this:

"If your catalytic converter is doing its job, it will convert some of the exhaust gasses into water vapor, especially when the car is first started and is running a little rich. If you only drive the car on mainly short trips, this water vapor can collect in the exhaust system rather than evaporating from the heat generated from longer trips. "

If this is true how the hell do i get the water that has pooled up out of the exhaust system? My car usually sits in the garage most of the time and when I do fire her up it is usually to the bank or gas station of some other type of "short" trip. I paid alot for the exhaust and i dont want it to rust out. any ideas, or what do you guys do? I was thinking of parking it on an incline with the *** lower and the motor angled up and maybe the water will come out better IDK

 

If it is just plain water it is normal. The other day after my car had been sitting for awhile (1 week) - I started it and after the idle came down and the engine temp came up I revved it. It shot water out of the tailpipes. It normal it is just the condensate.

 

you can drill a tiny hole in your muffler and any low spots in the tail pipe section. Normally not necessary.

 

Completely normal. Some exhaust systems have drain holes.

If your exhaust is stainless (most are) the condensate will do absolutely nothing to the metal. Condensate is nearly pure water which is corrosive to black iron but will do nothing to stainless.

In general, though, short trips are not good for a car.

 

Yea,, my cars like a waterhose sometimes. even with my old stock exhaust.. I guess its the cats workin.

 

totally normal and common. will not rust your exhaust that it'll need to be replaced before normal.
