    Yeah, you're going to need some goodies, for sure. Let me know what you decide on compressor(s) and how hefty of line you're planning on running to the paddle valves, and I can point you in the direction of some stuff to buy to get you started.

    You absolutely want one switch per corner.

    If you have only one switch per end of the car, not only do you lose side-to-side adjustability (which you'll want if, say, someone gets into the car), but also, the two front and two rear bags will have their air connected to one another. What this means is that if you go around a corner, the inside bag will see higher pressure from the suspension compressing, and send some of its air to the outside bag. This will drop your spring rate on cornering to just about nothing (meaning wheels are going to run into fenders), but it also means you're going to have quite unpredictable handling.

    People have done it, but I certainly don't recommend it.

    alright so i guess that means i have an extra gauge then, also is it better to have the 4 paddles or have the 2 one for front and the other for the rear.

    That's the idea. Hopefully the tank gauge matches well enough to what you've already got..

    I just noticed your gauges. In a previous conversation, you had indicated that you were going to run 200 PSI tank pressure in order to use all your 444cs' capability and get a little more range out of a small tank. If that's the case, that you are going to run 200 in the tank, the gauge that measures tank pressure will have to be able to read to 200 PSI. Your 150 PSI dual-needle gauges should be fine for bag pressure, however - I hit 140 PSI in the front aired all the way up on mine, and mine's a big heavy pig.
    Have been doing some research after work, looked at the gauges I have what I was thinking was that I really don't need 3 dual gauges when 2 would work. Also when you mentioned the tang gauge could that take the spot of the 3rd gauge for my gauge pod.

    thanks

    Last photo is what holds the fuse to for the power to the compressor. That part you want to mount right near your battery, when you hook it all up



    Top left hand corner of the second page of the pdf shows how to mount it and wire it up

    Fuse holder for the big power feed that will run to your trunk. You'll have to figure out what gauge wire it wants - looks like probably 4-gauge, but that's just a guess. You can measure the inside diameter of the wire sockets on either side and that'll tell you the gauge.

    If it is 4-gauge, that'll be healthy overkill for a single compressor, and just about right for twin compressors. If you're planning on an audio system as well, however, you'll likely need to upgrade.

    Those are ptc Y unions for the air running to the paddle valves. You really only need 2 but I guess that set up is if you only want to run one air line from the tank, that separates that online to the two others. Bagriders has a helpful diagram to explain this:

    This one is running 2 lines from the tank to the paddles

    This one is running 1 line from the tank to the paddles, also this one has way more instructions

    Hope that helps

    Speed was never something I wanted, plus 1/4" paddles are slow anyway, really doubt adding in 1/2" line would help anything. I always started with 3/8 on my builds and sometimes went 1/8 in the rear to slow everything down, but that's just me. My only thing with your layout was all the extra fittings which could just lead to more leaks but both would work very well.
    Are you referring to what i have for the parts or the diagrams posted?
