Corsa Extreme question
If I were to have the Corsa extreme axle back, along with their x-pipe, but on my 11 Automatic, would that leave the cats in place? Does the x-pipe make it a "cat back" upgrade?

Technically it's just an x pipe and an axle-back. It should leave your factory cats in place. If the axle-back included over axle pipes then it's advertised as a catback.

The car will retain the stock cats.

Yup the cats arent on the midpipe anymore like they use to be, there on a section of pipe that leads from the header to the midpipe.

Any reason choose cat-backs over axle-backs?

More free-flowing, will probably give increased torque/hp numbers. Check manufacturer's websites for actual gains...
