a Cat-Back system is the portion of your exhuast system that starts from the catylitic convertor and ends with the exhuast tip at the other end. Upgrading the size of a stock exhaust piping is usally good for about 2-4 extra hp. the most common size usually for a honda or any non turbo/supercharged vehicle is the 2-1/4" - 2-1/2" range, whereas the turbo/SC vehicles normally should run about 3" for optimal efficency.
the exhaust tip, is a dressy ending to your exhaust system and along with the muffler you choose, provides the "sound" produced by the car.
