The Wiring is the nightmare. if you want a clean install you have to take alot of time in running wires and Air lines.
I tried my Best to help MDSC out with some of the stuff on the phone, But I had 4 Other people that were in the mix helping me when we put it in and took it out. To many chiefs not enough Indians. Wiring was a nightmare

anyone running an additional battery for the compressor? Alternator upgrade inorder?
Strongly considering a Air kit very soon..
MDSC/JDM Muscle - how is the handling with these air suspension setups? I am not looking to drift with them or drag race but I would like to know I want rock in turns..

also, how is the leveling for the SC300? I am hearing reviews about the leveling being uneven on some corners.
Accuair has a great leveling product that I am considering to fix this, but I am concerned about weight transfer during corners and the system constantly kicking on to adjust. This could burn out the compressor pretty fast.. But I am not 100%..
unless of course it doesn't adjust during movement..

Handling i couldnt tell you i dont go flying into the turns, this system right now is a 2 line split system not the best for handling. If you run 4 sep lines to all 4 bags on coils it should handle just fine.

Air ride is pretty simple, there are really only a few parts. Tank, Compressors, silinoids and bags. thats it lol

2 compressors at idle are putting a slight hurting on my charging system, i dont have any problems but the charging is at 12.5v at idle while both of the compressors are on...if you rev it up to 2k its at 14.1v. Now i also have a 18 year old altenator with 237k miles on it...so far no issues no need for another battery especially if you run 1 compressor.

That may be what I need to do then. Would a tank with 4 ports be necessary, right?

Well I wouldn't saying doing 80 on a 25 turn.. and I am talking about a nice apex corner.. does it handle. In comparison to the "on rail" feeling of your previous BC's, how is the handling??

a selenoid box that controls 4 corners is necessary...right now my car handles like it did with stock struts and espelir springs...if i switch to all 4 corners im sure it will handle much better. On a coilover with adjustment and bag preload...and all 4 corners separate i'm sure it will handle very well. but you will also need to raise it when you want to handle better..that way you put more air in the bags so it has less sway.

So i was reading an old thread where I came across some disturbing pictures.. One of the bags on a SCX00 was rubbing along the inside strut tower which eventually caused a tear in the bag..
Now, MDSC or anyone on bags that reads this, what size bags are you running to avoid this catastrophe?
