So..why are my tips black all the damn time?
I can't figure out why my exhaust tips are black all the time. I dont see any fuel collecting or any black soot or gas coming out. Its always clear. Ive been told by people following me i dont put out black smoke, but somehow, i can get black exhasut tips in 2 days! wtf?

Try not driving above 4500rpms...
I have heard that our cars run rich over like 5k RPMs.
If I drive easy for a week, no black on the tips...
If I get on it to redline, I get black on the bottom of the tips.
Also, moisture can condense inside the pipes and you'll spew water out, which makes the tips black.
I think it's normal....

Haha slightly joking with the Pam.... but uh coating them with nonstick spray helps to keep the carbon from sticking for a while same principle as waxing some wheels

Bah idk. And damn that guy got real mad. I guess he doesn't know i have the 2.5'' system? 
Idk, its just weird that it actually makes the tips black on thsi exhaust, but not aps and stock whcih also had straight pipes. I guess wax should do it.
