Icon6 Water out of the exhaust..

So like a month ago i drop in a mini me in my hatch but the problem is that when the car is on water start to drip out of the exhaust even after the car has been on for a long time and when i rev it more water start to come out. They told me that it could be the head gasket that not torque down right what else can it be.....

If it doesn't smell like burnt coolant, that's normal, it's called condensation.

do u drive it very often? if not, it could be chemicals building up in the exhaust and mixing with air that causes the condensation. Or it could be your cat not being efficient enough to clean up all the chemicals coming from your exhaust.
