Water from exhaust

Does anyone else have water coming from their exhaust? I have stock cat, and Ralliart catback. When the car idles on the driveway drops of water come out the tip of the exhaust. Is this normal?

That's normal for small ammounts(drops). If it was alot of water it would indicate you have a head gastet or water jacket problem.

It's from the catalytic converter and condensation forming in the exhaust system.

The byproducts of complete combustion are H2O(water) and CO2(CarbonDioxide). No engine is that efficient so the Catalytic converter and emission control system helps.

it is normal... it is condensation... exaust is hot... plus cool air will make condensate when the car cools down
