Carven progressive should be called Carven AGGRESSIVE

That is far from being loud enough to worry about the police. Lol Sounds great

How does the progressive and competitor compare to a straight pipe on cold start?

I've tried straight pipe and cold start are way too loud, specially when it's minus something the truck will take a good amount of time before it idle down. The Magnaflow 18" is ok for cold start, but then is too quiet for my taste when it idle.

The Progressive is great, I mean its loud but not crazy loud.
It sounds way better than any straight piped truck no raspy popping cracking sound.

If I could make a suggestion, albeit you own a Viper do not install long tubes. Just a thought.

I just installed my Carven Progressive on Saturday. It's already better than it was the first time I took it out (wife still dislikes it). I'm hoping that it calms a little more as it has started to grow on me, but maybe still a little loud for my liking. Great sound, maybe a little too loud.

That is my fear - living in a subdivision and ******* everyone off when I leave for the gym at 5am.
