i think it still might be a LITTLE over priced..UAS is bout 2k and u get more switch options..may require a lil more work..but im sure a lot of people are thinkin the same thing when it comes to new products..gotta have some vouchers for it..hopefully this 2nd generation of air force works out..is it only one compressor? whats the tank size?

The tank is 5 gallons and uses 1 compressor. Air lines are 1/4". These things can always be upgraded if you choose, but you are given everything you need to get running.

You'll be wanting something like this.For the everyday use, you won't even notice it's an air ride system. You don't have to worry about the usual air leaks, leaving your car sagging. This system works exactly like coilovers, but gives you the extra help to lift the car when you need it most!
Thanks for your input!

That's how you crack your side skirts...But hey, the joys of having a super slammed ride right?
I know this company is new, but it's in it's 2nd year making improvements on their kits! That's good news right there! They're not claiiming to be the best, nor are we trying to make it seem that way. We're just trying to help move a product that should be in demand for the right people. For the price, like we keep saying, should be a steal!

Jacksonvp: Thank you for your very valid question. To answer what I can, the spring rates are as follows for the 2GS applications:
GS300: 17kg/mm front, 7.2kg/mm rear
GS4xx: 21kg/mm front, 7.2kg/mm rear
I will inquire with further coilover body specs from Air Force and respond when I receive an answer.
Please also keep in mind that the adjustable ride height is the most important feature of these kits for the price. These kits are intended for those who love to drive really low all the time and occasionally want to raise their car to save their front bumpers...
As far as having a track star setup, that is left to be seen from those who will put it to the test. We have a customer with a SC who ordered the kit with custom spring rates and takes it to the canyons fairly often. Hopefully I can get him to chime in with his input on the performance of the unit.

I ride on tein HA's now and that 17kg in the front would probably be too rough for me. any way around that?

Yes, there is 1 year warranty.
CLICK ME for the application list. The size of the tank/compressor silencer plate is 19.5 x 8.5 x 8.5".
You can always go to a small pancake tank that will fit in your spare tire area if you wanted to. This kit simply gives you something to start out with.
