I don't think its one or the other.

Yeah, I noticed that there seems to be a difference in terminology about what an "axle-back" exhaust is. For me, personally, I count systems that only extend to around the rear axle area an "axle-back" (like the Tanabe). But since everyone is clear (I think) about the Greddy system replacing the stock resonators and extending to the y-pipe by the cats, I don't think it's a problem. I'd love to see some before/after dynos of this exhaust, to compare the gains throughout the whole powerband to the full cat-backs like the Stillen and FI exhausts.
