Too Afraid to Ask

A cat-back exhaust is a part of a car's exhaust system. It helps the car run better and makes it sound different, usually louder and sportier.

Technical Definition

A cat-back exhaust refers to the section of an exhaust system that runs from the catalytic converter to the rear of the vehicle. Upgrading to a cat-back exhaust can improve performance and sound by allowing exhaust gases to flow more freely.
