umm the water comes from condensation in your exhaust. Unless your combustion chamber is getting water into it then youd be noticing a whole lot more than just water on your apexi

dude im saying that it is not getting water in the combustion chamber cause if it was then you car would run like crap or worse break. Since its not coming out of your combustion chamber then its got to be the condensation in the exhaust pipe. It cant come from anywhere else.

One of the beautiful things about burning stuff is that water is almost always a bi-product of any combustion reaction. So among other things, you got water vapor in your exhaust; when it comes out your tailpipe it cools down very quickly and that vapor condenses. You notice it a lot more or less depending on weather conditions.
