I just hate that my trunk is so darn small, I grew up hittin' hydro switches and it was soooo much fun lol. I had a blast going fbss (on hydraulics), I gottt addicted. Your definitely going to want a much larger tank once you start playing with the switches, even with a high powered compressor and a 5 gallon tank your constantly going to be refilling and refilling and it's a bit noisy. I've used a 12 gallon (pre-filled) air tank loaded with helium. It's crazy fast and sounds cool too Let me add that depending on what type of set-up your doing or I should say the 'kits' that are more commonly sold are the sloooooowest kits. DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST IF YOUR NOT SURE WHAT YOU WANT.
I would suggest using steel or copper fittings and lines instead of plastic, they will hold up much longer with heavy abuse. Parker valves have worked really well with me I like em', but there sure not cheap.
Anyone here using 3/4 or half inch lines??? Just curious, I've only seen them on truck set-ups.
Keep up the great job guys

Ya Iv had experience with parker, GC, & SMC! I realy had no issues with any of them! They have to be strong and up to par to meet D.O.T. standards!
SO whats the norm for Air line set up! There is no reason to use 1/2 inch because its to fast! I understand pefectly that VIP set up cars have lots of money in Body kits and paint, so slow and quite is the key while lowering and lifting to ride highth and parking stance! I also know that companies like Air Runner use Valve Dump Controls wich alow you to controll the amount of air that comes out the dump valve when lowering it also quiets the air comeing out! but they also make mufflors for dump valves!

I luv the excitement and rush that comes with extreeme customizing when done properly off course! I like the sound the bags make when being deflated it's the noise of the compressor I don't cut for.
I've come across some sucky valves that always ended up leaking before I got the Parkers. I've also tried the plastic lookin' lines and they got pinched and melted
Great thread by the way

Thanks, i wish we could get some support Expecially form All the VIP enthusiasts?
Im sure alot of guys would go air if they relised thats its not realy that hard like it is on trucks! Its more Reliable also becasuse 99% of all your components are covered and away from all the Elements because its all in your trunk!

I would post pics, but mine is real basic and no where near show quality. I choose to do a basic set up for now until my audio is done. Hopefully that will be done by summer, but still waiting on a few more pieces and a little more $$$$.
