Default JoeZ Exhaust - Cat back vs Axel back

Looking to purchase a JoeZ exhaust possibly.. Will an axel back sound different then a full cat back? I am not worried about performance gains, just curious if the exhaust itself will sound any different then a full setup..

Thanks!

From someone who went full JoeZ catback to axleback, I could tell you that the full exhaust changes the most in terms of loudness vs just axleback.
In terms of tone, it changes from a roar to a slightly more muffled tone.
Wide open throttle you will have more growl at all rpm ranges with full JoeZ, with axleback the growl starts at a higher rpm.

I do have headers as well though, so that will increase loudness and change the exhaust tone by itself.

Had to go back to just headers, stock midpipe, and JoeZ axleback because full exhaust was droning like crazy.

Hope that helps

Not exactly JoeZ midpipe but you clearly can tell there are differences between them.
