A cat back system is when you replace your exhaust from the cat covertor to the tailpipe, usually with something larger for performance. A cannon is just a type of straight through muffler that comes out the back of your car.

if you look at yonas's thread here (http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showthread.php?t=63302) you can see that the whole piping setup which run from the catalytic converter.. that whole thing is called the catback system which may include the 'cannon' muffler, also showed in the picture (the one with 2 hangers on its side)... hope this helps

Catback = Exhaust piping from the catylitic conver to the back of the car (hence the name 'catback')

Cannon = a muffler of a certain design which is usually apart of a catback system, although it can just be used as a replacement muffler at the end of the exhaust system.
