Cat-BACK just means everything from the end of the cats (not including the cats) and back is replaced. Cats are part of the mid-piping.



Oh and the stock exhausr is pretty gd from the catback.
And this. From cat to axle-back is sufficient with nothing measurable to be gained.

I never had an after market axle back on it so I couldn't say much for gains between the two. It had to have picked up something though along with my Airaid. I dyoned bone stock 372/359 and after Airaid intake / Borla S-type catback it was putting out 382/387 at the 1st TS dyno day last year. No tune yet. So I'd say the catback attributed to a bit of those gains.
