    you could put some type of catch can under it and say your car is taking a piss. lol... my friends car used to do it alot before it warmed up. you could actually put your hand behind it and when you hit the throttle, it would spray a little water. then it would stop.

    -other than that i got nothing.

    seafoam it maybe? make sure your running coolant and not water. hmmm what else? check for exhaust leaks where water could maybe get in somehow? my first DA did this same shit.

    its probably just the temperature; like when its cold, condensation just builds up inside the motor. It happens to all engines, and probably the new catalytic on your car is just making it make more water since it takes the harmful exhaust gases and transforms them into H20 anyways.

    ^^^only thing id really worry about if theres that much condensation in your engine is sludge, cuz when you mix water, oil, and those blowby gases with the varying engine temperatures that's what you'll get...

    only solution is to tell mother nature to make it hot outside.

    The exhaust doesn't smell sweet does it, like it's burning Coolant? Any white smoke?

    You can only give 8 reps, half of how many you have.

    Isn't that correct? lol

    it's just condensation, after removing my cat i actually have noticed it more from my SI, but after it heats up it's all gone. we do live in one of the most humid areas of the country. humidity=moisture in the air. just think of how quickly you sweat when going outside here, same applies to metal, glass, etc, the moisture from the air sticks and when heat is added you have your dripping problem. unless maybe your car has an STD or something. lol

    BTW love the weatherman photo, awesome, Let's check the weather "it's gonna rain b*tch"!!! or " who wants this dog?"

    It has something to do with the weather no doubt. I was behind a brand spanking new Infiniti , and he got on the gas and moisture came out of his tail pipes. That is a new car so it has to be the weather.
