Are there different types of car exhaust systems?
I want to improve the performance of my car and I am thinking of getting a new car exhaust system. Are there different types of car exhaust systems?

Yes, there are three different types of car exhaust systems and the one that works best for you will depend on your driving habits and budget. Here is some information that will help you decide which one to get:
- Axle-back: The cheapest of the bunch, will replace all the exhaust components from the rear axle to the exhaust tip. They are easier to install, and while they don’t enhance engine performance as much as some other options, they will produce decent car note.
- Cat-back: The cat-back will replace the exhaust components from the catalytic converter on the back. This modification will make a great engine sound, and it will also increase horsepower and fuel efficiency.
- Header-back: The header-back replaces the entire exhaust system and enlarges the diameter of the exhaust system. Even though it is the most expensive option, car lovers rave about the increased power, sound, and performance.
All you have to do is sign up, fill out a short questionnaire, and Jerry will start comparing dozens of competitive quotes from the nation’s top insurance companies, finding you the best deals on the market.
