lookin sick as hell bro!! you may need to drop to the highest hole in the back cuz you should be tuckin harder then that but it still looks great! You got lots of extension!

oh and no prob on the xmas tech support

hey what pressure switch do you use? is it a 145, 170, or 200? if you dont have the 200 you should get it, that compressor is made to go that high and it will be wayyyy faster too.

Thanks bro, i'm lovin it. My little ride/play time tonight wasnt long enough. I ant wait for 5pm tommorrow. I got the full tank, and all the avenue i need. Gonna tear that shit up.

My pressure switch is 165on, and 200off. It hasnt got full enough to cut off yet, but i ran it for about 4 minutes w/o hitting a switch, stopped, and hit the front up, and it is so fucking fast dude, its crazy. I swear dude, for real. I can't keep my hands off the switches long enough for it to cut off. Honestly, i cant really say i can trust that pressure switch that much. I want a guage, so i can watch it. I dont want anything to blow up. 200psi is a fucking lot.

I'm definatly gonna get it lower. It gets way too high on full extension, and it's not as low as i'm used to.

Also, the ride quality IS AWESOME! Far from a stock ride, but tons upon tons upon tons better than the coilovers with the bottoming out shocks. omg those things beat me to death.

Steve, when you said that compressor was a beast, you weren't playin! It killed my kinetik 1400 in about 10minutes with the car off. I mean, i havent ran the car, and have been playing the radio jsut about all the time for 3 days, but still. That thing draws some fucking current. I went ahead and ran 4g to it isntead of 8 also.

youll be ok as long as you wired it up correctly......but ya go to home depot they have that guage like mine for like 10 bucks. YOu just need to get the plumbing to make it work. And since this is your first bag install, get a 2 way coupler for your line and toss it in the glove box. Keep something in there to cut the line in case you get a pin hole somewhere. If you do, then you cut it at the damaged spot and just re-couple it and your back on the road. Other then that your stuck like chuck so go get one or even better 2.

Yea, i saw that article here,a nd i am going to pick that up.

I ahve about 100$ worth of fittings to return to HD, so i'll get that, and a guage. For the guage, i just run a small line to the front of the car, and hook the guage to it?

ya dont get in the habit of letting the compressor run on a car thats not running...you need that alt to carry it for sure. Also i would do 2 more things. Put a switch or circuit braker on the line so the compressor can be shut off for the evening. If your losing ANY pressure, it will kick on all nite and you will wake up to a dead battery. You might even destroy the battery cuz that compressor will try and take it to 0 volts and shit bro

next thing i would do is put a toggle switch somewhere near the dash to turn your switch box off. Just inturrupt the red wire going in with that switch and you wont have to worry about accidently hitting a switch if the box falls to the floor. Nothin like doin 50 and the box falls on the floor and it tosses you around a little. When your not expecting it you will get the shit scared out of you or even worse an accident. Plus, you dont want your friends hittin switches with your car man, so put that switch in one of the empty spots by your left knee by the secret jewelry holder thing.

thats what i do

My compressor is on my ignition wire. When my key is off, it gets no power. Also, it's on a toggle switch in my glovebox so even when the key is on, and the pressure switch is telling it to fire, i can still kill it if i need to, like at a drive trough or if my phone rings or somehting.

That's a good idea on the switchbox too. That would be a bad thing lol.

i use these......digital is good to but if you just want to ease your mind knowing your tank isnt being over filled then get this...

[bibby>Chode]

Only problem there, is i'd have to get out to look at it. I need it up front, where i can jsut glance at it.

also, is that 2nd compressor ok there? Mine runs hella hot. I'm talkin too hot to touch.
