the correct term for the tanabe is resonator back, not cat back or axle back

ok i guess it's resonator back, it's just that axleback was the most commonly used term. anyway, the point is that it isn't a catback.

IS cant have a catback since there are no flanges after the cats, unless you like to cut and weld
