after installing this i am pretty impressed with airrex and what they've put together. the simplicity of the all-in-one box makes installation a breeze. of course the strut/bag combo is well made though i wish they used poly bushings instead of rubber. the system works surprisingly well especially the wireless controller! since power is hardwired directly to battery w/o relays i was concerned that the battery would drain while parked if it ever developed a leak. however the system is smart enough to know the voltage level so if it drops below i believe 11.5V the system will not continue to run. this means the car usually needs to be on, alternator charging, for the compressor to replenish. The 3 gallon tank may be too small for the weight of this car but it works.

i have yet to take a ride due to the tight schedule yogi put himself in this past weekend! i'm happy at the outcome and for you man!

Also the day after I'll be making a short apperence over at Formula Drift's Tech Day over at Source Interlink Media Irvine. Until then the car stays in its cover

Struts & Components packed very well and all labeled very well in 1 box. As you can see by the in-hailer, I was very excited. Inhailer Not Included in the kit... Hahahhahaa.
it may be worth mentioning but we adjusted the length of these. from the factory the struts are at its shortest height bottomed out on the housings as shown in the pic. this was too low to our liking so we lengthened the struts about 1-1.5" to get a better lift since yogi wanted a close-to-stock height at full up due to his kit. i was surprised at how much travel the air bags gave, esp the front dual bellow bags. at this point the drop is limited to suspension travel (front upper a-arm hits the shock tower). this just goes to show if you want to really slam your car on air, the airrex kit can do it!
