Default Catback vs. Axleback...

Just curious what the main differences were, particularly performance.. To my knowledge a catback is from the Catalytic converter back, and the axleback is from the axle back.. I have an Apex'i N1 Catback right now, but was considering going to a Spoon axleback, is there a big performance difference at all? Why does Spoon only make an axleback?

Haha, sorry for all the questions...

Well, I am really considering getting the Spoon N1, but I want to eliminate bottlenecks, and make it as good as possible.

Well, I already have the Apex'i N1 Catback on my car, if I bought the Spoon N1 axleback, would it bolt right on? Would I have any bottlenecks?

Yeah it is a nice avatar isn't it!
