mine's not too loud the exo2 mounts drown out some of the sound because of the rubber mounting o=points yea its a bit loud but only for a minute, I don't mine it at all really.

you guys can opt for the 2 3 gallon tanks if youd like and get them to fit underneath the spare tire area. that's what I almost did.

just sayin i remember mine were not quiet lol almost ended up switching to a belt driven compressor set-up for less noise and more air of course.

my compressors were mounted to my frame of the truck with rubberm ounts. still heard and felt them. i will say i believe the ones i had were a little larger/heavy duty than the ones pictured. i was running all 1/2" valves so the air went quick lol

yea they're not quite but not too bad I've heard ones that are just bolted on the metal trunk (I don't know who the **** installed that one) but that was super loud, I'm running 400cc compressors but its not bad I'm satisfied being on air.

I think i am going to run the dual 440 or the dual 400. It is pretty much a dedicated show car at this point, so the tank sitting in the trunk is a bit of a show piece. I am debating on the polished or raw. Thought about the raw and having it powder coated to match my wheels.

Looks so bad ***! You just had a raw aluminum tank for the painting, right?

CarbonFZ 06-05-2014 04:05 PM

yes

KaienZ34 06-07-2014 02:29 PM

What size lines are you guys going with?

Riptide67 06-08-2014 12:46 PM

I am still debating between 3/8" and 1/4". The bags I have already have 3/8" fittings. But I may swap for 1/4". I like the slow drop but the fast rise has it's benefits as well.

CarbonFZ 06-09-2014 10:34 PM

I have 3/8 fittings and I air up fast and air down slow but not too slow. I'm using an accuair manifold so airing out is t too fast or too slow

KaienZ34 06-10-2014 12:31 PM

Is the manifold separate, or does it come with the kit from Accuair?

Riptide67 06-10-2014 01:25 PM

The manifold comes with the kit, KaienZ34.

to make it stage 2, just add another compressor.

Looks nice, Dom. I bet you spent a few shiny pennies to get the trunk setu up like that!
