Yup. Condensation collects in the exhaust piping when it's cool. Then you crank up the motor and it blows it all out.

false. it comes from the catalytic converter. water vapor is one of the resultants of the chemical reaction that occurs within the cat. this is also a good sign that your cat is functioning properly

He said liquid. Not vapor. The cat doesn't produce enough vapor to condense in the exhaust system. It's condensation from hot air and a cold pipe.

and the water vapor accumulates to liquid...

So on a catless exhaust system, say a turbo-back Vibrant TPV, the liquid water running out the muffler comes from...?
