Thanks for the informative video. Can't believe you found someone willing to install air suspension on a porsche, usually its not the best for handling which porsche guys are crazy about. On the upside, I bet its the comfy as heck.

It handles really well actually! It's improvement over stock, rides lower (lower center of gravity), and it's just as comfortable as stock if not better with damping at full soft for daily driving. There are 36 levels of adjustment if I ever want to track it or go through some twisties as well! - Jt

@@FitmentIndustries Thats fantastic. The only reason I commented about the handling is because I've heard mixed things, with some praising it while others swear by coilovers. But congrats on the setup my dude. I'm sure it absolutely decimates corners, like a little road terrorist.

This is a really good video. I wish I can just customize my struts before placing that order.

Looking at Air Ride for my 350. Thanks bois
thanks
Nice A8 in the background
I may be a dummy but I can appreciate some clean air ride suspension 😍
Don’t forget to hack up the frames on your A4’s, preventing most shops from working on the undercarriage. 🙄
I going to go with coilovers. I want the full adjustability especially if I start tracking my car.
Can you make a video for this but on an SUV that comes with factory air? (Like maybe an 07 Denali... 🤷♀️🤷♀️)
Any recomendations for an s13? Obviously i want double bellows. 😂
Scary! Let's see what all this entails.....
Ive had air suspension for about 2 years now and I’m not having any issues at all. However, do you have a video or tips on fine tuning the suspension? Ive heard it’s suppose to be comfortable but so far it’s felt harsh in both directions. Thanks in advance! Love the videos!

Wouldn't fine tuning be quite component specific.. depending on what you have and what adjustments they have will dictate the fine tuning procedure
I have a dumb question guys, if i have my car on jack stands. Can i install the struts without air? The paper i got said to install the struts w at least 70psi so i dont pinch the bag. New to this so anything would help🙏🏻
What type of air suspension setup did you use?
What happened to the Mazdaspeed 6
It’s a lot of work. Enjoy!
Really fast 1/2
Is that an older A8 in the background?
'its really easy' *skips all the hard stuff in the video*
Was it not possible to mount the tank further back in the trunk? that little space you got there is now completly gone. I know it's for style and all, But i'm All for Style and Practicality.

It can be mounted wherever and possibly further back; it’s not mounted yet! I also have a frunk still so it’s not too bad. - Jt
Can air suspension be installed on older cars. Like a 70s Mercedes? On them the shock absorber does not go through the spring but is separated?

How about the cheapest way to put ariride in a car? Both old and new cars....
How much would I be looking at to have something like this installed for a busy guy like myself who will be purchasing a Porsche Taycan without air suspension?
