Default Another exhaust question...

I recently installed the SLP LoudMouth I on my car. Now ive had it on for a few weeks and i don't think i hear any leaks but i did look under the car and there is a lot of water coming out from where the I-pipe joins with the resonator.
Is this normal?
Also if water is coming out of it that means exhaust has to leaking as well, right?
If so is this robbing me of a lot of performance? I definately noticed an improvement from the stock exhaust but since this might be a leak does that mean i could feel more?

Moisture in your exhaust is normal. Having a tiny exhaust leak like that won't hurt your performance, they just get annoying. Try a band clamp from napa, that usually seals things up nice.

Totally normal, not causing any loss in performance at all......
