that that sucks no ls430, it's kinda lame because it shares almost the same suspension set up as the ucf20 ls400.

In person it seems faster than this maxima in the video. However its speed is comparable to any 1/4" air ride system. Speed also varies with the components which make up the system and of course vehicle weight. As I would go with a custom setup compared to what the kit comes with. I have 1/2" airlines right now, and it is brutal coming down even with custom slow downs on the exhuast side. I do however like the up speed to get out of trouble(ie train tracks, potholes, etc) so for my new setup I feel 3/8" will be more than sufficient.

just get 3/8 for more speed. not really an issue.
