I have been waiting for an exhaust tone that I liked.. Sunday I saw the Carven RX-A and ordered it immediately. Sounds Sick! Now I just need some 5" tips from Moe's!

That is awsome!! Gotta respect the impulse buyer!! Kinda like myself:) You have to get various videos up when you get it on the truck, idle on grass, revs, take off, drive by, etc. I think that Carven may have one of the best sounds I have heard on youtube for these trucks.

Btw, I am a big Corsa, Magnaflow, Borla fan. Looks like they have some competition....

Thanks for the info on Carven. Great sounding exhaust. Going to wait it out to see what the new clamp on kit consists of.

Spintech = nasty mean! Love it and yes it's loud, the cut out = extreme nasty mean. Hope to get a video soon.

Yea man got it done before the weather went to crap, awesome mod! The Wife wasn't to happy with me working on my truck on v-day :) so I didn't get to try get a video, but I did drive it some, when cutout open and cruising it's not very noticeable but when push the pedal down holy ****!! Kinda wish the switch was open/close not hold it for 5 seconds and I notice it collects all the condensation in the pipe so make sure you lubricant it.

Quick update on the Carven exhaust that was mentioned in here:

The Carven Exhaust sends its thanks to all you followers!

Update:
RA-X Performance Muffler will not longer be available for purchase.

The AR-1 Performance Muffler will now have a adapter option for dual out or dual in using the new carven performance Y collector.

New Products:
RA-X 2009-2015 Ram Trucks (Preorders start 3/20/15)
Includes a mandrel bends integrated using our AR-1 Performance Muffler which will clamp on and replace OEM muffler(no welding required). Along with The Carven Black Signature 4.5" tips which will also clamp on and replace OEM tips.
Sound clips and dyno numbers will be posted at later date.

Carven Y Performance Collector, stainless steel finish & tig welded.

Carven Black Signature Tips, available for weld on applications such as trucks, suv, and sport cars.

Carven RA-X Black Signature Tips, we also be available for purchasing outside of Ram kit.

All Carven Exhaust Tips are powder coated in gloss/satin finish and will also have carven logo on its side.


Kinda bummed that there are no SS tips offered along with the RA-X going away. I was hoping for good things out of the "catback" offering. Hoping I can score an RA-X before they are totally discontinued and then grab some of Moe's 5" SS tips.

*edit* Pulled up their site and they've already pulled down the listings for the RA-X muffler. Crap!

Yeah i'm a bit disappointed myself I guess the dyno results shook out better with the other muffler set up!

There are no issues with aftermarket mufflers/exhaust in CA. Pretty much everything else is banned though, lol: LT headers, shortie headers (except for JBA), cutouts, cat-less, muffler delete, Vararam, tuners, etc..

Chatted with them some more and they mentioned pretty much the same. They said they think the AR-1 sounds better, so I guess we'll wait and see. They did confirm that they will offer their tips in SS along with black (which I'm happy about).

RTS - if you decide you don't want that muffler, let me know. Thanks!
