I took the SS for a cruise this morning. I got back home and shut her down in the driveway. Five minutes later I was near the car and heard a "sizzling" noise.. so I look underneath and there is a very small collection of water that is leaking from the bottom of the catalytic converter (where it connects to the Y-pipe). When the water leaks and it touches the hot metal exhaust, it sizzles and some evaporates, some falls to the driveway. Is this normal?

AC condensate drain is on the passenger side on the firewall and can drip on the exhaust, but stock mine never has here in Florida. Don't know why it would still be draining that much after off for 5 minutes and still noticeable, unless it's partially clogged and/or if you have LT's and it's collecting on them somewhere.
