I heard of the good deal Strafe has. Install will cost some as well. Just look Mach III up on yahoo. I would go that route but I dont have any room for the tank or compressors with my audio install....

I had my install done at mach III last week. The trunk setup is crazy clean and everythih was sealed and tucked nicely. But understand what your getting into if you go air ride. The install labor is about 30ish hours from what I understand. To do it right means you will be without a car for a while as it is a very custom job.

I got an upgraded kit with custom gauges special ordered, along with body kit parts, and other work done as well. Give kris a call at machiii if you want a quote. It really depends on the type of setup and work you want done.

its pretty straight forward and 30hrs is a long time esp. in a shop with all the "right" tools. did it cleanly in my garage with namrock in 10 at most with out special shop tools haha.

nice... personally i feel that still is not a 30hr job. But i do like that set up

any reason why you ran both compressors through the same t fitting? does it fill the tank faster?
