    still remember when you used to do each valve block as a separate run, looks so much cleaner compared to what the green hornet had hahaha

      @D2iAuto  2 года назад

      Still do it like that if it's requested, that's the difference between fast valves and slow if people want fast bags than it needs Individual valve assembly rather than a compact block :)

      Hey,
      Unfortunately bit longer takes around 17-20 hours or so
      Usually allow 3 days and sometimes 4 if chasing stubborn hard to find air leaks but ideally bowl most of it in 2 and the 3rd is for any leaks and finishing

    • @D2iAuto
      @D2iAuto  2 года назад

      Hey, thanks.
      The Killswitch is wired to cigar plug accessory turn on so it is live when the car is on, then that is wired directly to the pressure switch and then to the relay to turn the relay on then compressor power is with 6mm wire and a 30 amp circuit breaker but thats all dependant on what compressor setup you are using

      @@jacksonmiles4166 majority of compressors will be over 20a I'd always use a relay anyway and then only switch low currents.
      Have a spst relay and then use the switch to trigger the pressure switch and then to the relay that's how the simple Killswitch would work or you can use the pressure switch to switch the ground connection to the coil of the relay and then the accessory wire use your switch between accessory and then trigger the positive side of the coil on the relay

      Depends on your roadworthy person technically needs to be engineered but i make bolt in spring locators which bolt in the same way as bags and then you put the factory rubbers over them. Can be found here:

      Not that exact kit no the bags, tank, compressor etc yes is all fine but the control can not be manual controls, you need autolevel (airlift, accuair, levelride) etc and can't be adjusted while in motion below 100mm so height sensors and handbrake lockout so manual adjustments and air out can only happen when handbrake is on
