Default Exhaust leak help!

Hey,

I finally got my car into my garage and i was just looking at my car and i happened to turn it on, i heard a somewhat buzzing sound from my exhaust. now, i installed an apexi n1 around august. the exhuast is buzzing, its not really noticeable, but if you stand by it, you can hear it. i decided to look more at the piping and i noticed that where the resonator and the final pipe connects, theres a white liquid dripping from it, its not pouring, but its a constant drip. is that bad? how would i fix that? i tightened the bolts, but it still does it. and whats up with the buzzing sound?

did you use the new gasket that was supplied with the exhaust system? you can also use some high temp silicon sealant on the flanges and gasket to get a better seal. thats what i do on every exhaust that i install and i never see any leaks.

my brother has the apexi N1 on his neon and he used to hear a buzzing like when her shifted or when he let off the gas when he was revving. it did this only when the silencer was off.
