I did mine fast, and ended up slowing it down with reducers on all the exhaust valves and reduscing the 1/2" lines to 1/4" for about 12" before the valve in the rear. It was way to fast coming down all the way around, and too fast going up in the rear. I was hoping the rear off the ground without trying, do I had to slow it down.

I run a 5 gallon tank, with all brass fitting... I have slow down valves, reduces and adjusters to regulate my tire speed individually!!! I have mine set up SLOW becuase I do not want to crack my bodykit!!! I siot less than a half inch off the ground with bumper and side skirts at lowest point and my exhaust rests on the floor!!!


Anyone who wants to be nice and has time can post my pics ini the thread!!! otherwise:

Damn casper - talk about "pancaked" I have always wondered what the wear is like on the tires with any kind of hydro or bag setup - has it been long enough to tell yet?

acura.. thanks... was your question how or how much? How is CREDIT CARDS...lol how much... air ride was in the $2k-$2,500k range.. body kit was $4k... its expensive but if you wanna sit right... you gotta pay!

DJ... you can adjust your ride height... I drive close to stock to avoid wrecking my body kit.,... tire wear is EVEN... Its been on since january.... so a few months and a drive to florida!

you know the funny thing is that my cylinders are set at the highest setting.... I was concerned when i had the body kit done that if i ever went from 17s to 18-19s i would have a problem... I still have a few inches i can set my cylinders to drop... We set the cylinders on the highest to avoid wrecking bumpers during install and then planned on lowering it after we knew how much we had to go... shit just cleared street first time!!! I was like DAYUM!

casper,

so that was your car i saw down in daytona. me and my friends were walking around that place when one of them tells me "hey katie turn around...there's a bagged CL w/ a carbon fiber hood" and i about freakin died!

It looks good in pictures..but to see it in person is a whole different experience!

i was gonna go talk to you, but i didnt want to bother anyone...so i just admired from a far...

but looks damn good man

Since I don't have a kit, my exhaust doesn't hit, but the pipe almost does....



BTW, if you do this, and have 18's, be ready to rub in the front if you get to low
