F-Sport exhaust
I've just installed f-sport intake and exhaust about a week. I saw minor brown liquid from my right pipe only last 2 days. I am wondering, what is that ? Anyone experienced this before.

As far as I know there is a coating inside the exhaust to protect it from corrosion or something like that, that burns off. Might be coloring the moisture coming out from your exhaust line. Are you getting a puff of smoke on startup, too?
