I have no personal experience with Ksport's airtech system...yet. I'm seriously considering switching from my current UAS/KYB combo, ditching my TeinCS/UAS plans for Ksport.

But basically what I've gathered from my research is that it rides very nice, and holds up well even if you drive it low. I suggest you talk to people who own this system. vwynn, he was very helpful in answering my questions.

My only unanswered question is how durable are the ksport struts/bags? I guess only time will tell.

Subscribed to this thread, I hope fellow knowledgeable members chime in

Ksport kit has been quite good to me. ive pieced together my own upgrade kit using the ksport bags and what not but have yet to install it. when i did own it, it was a nice kit. Reliable and comfortable when you want it and stuff when you want it.

What I like the most about my KSport air is that no matter how low you want you drive height, you can get it to ride at a comfortable PSI. Hit me up on PM if you have any questions. I was one of the first to ride on them here and I have had it installed on my baby for just about 1.5 years now.

yea my main concern was just as what mex said..the durability of the struts/bags..i also got from other sources that the bags are flimsy and that they may pop on me eventually therefore i dont wanna take the risk because my car is a daily, and im pretty much screwed without it =X

Bump; Anyone on here has any experience with the Ksport basic Paddle Valve kit? I've heard that the Paddles can take a great deal of pressure and hold up more compared to their E-Management Systems. Can anyone chime in on this?
