    If I understand the question correctly as "how fast will the bags inflate or deflate"? It depends on the size of the smallest orifice in the system. The two compressors will fill the tank pretty fast, and if you use 1/2" lines with "big" valves, the car might hop.

    Your tank fill time will not be long (couple min from dead flat)

    Are you talking about how fast the car will rise? If so it depends on the pressure and size line your running....1/2" on a heavy car like that it will be fast, but it wont rattle the teeth out your head....I always like slowing the exhaust side down quite a bit cause I dont like a heavy ***ed car comming thundering outta the sky....

    Thanks, was just making sure I'm looking at different kits and this one had 2 comps. I don't want to hop or anything just lift and lay but I do want something dependable. This will be going in My Monte Carlo SS while I'm getting all the kinks fixed on my 47.

    Why does this come up every time some mentions bags. The man looking for answers not smart *** comments. As far as the trad comment goes.

    Caddy and the aftermarket both had then in the mid 50's.

    It's pretty funny too. If he would've read right He would've seen that the bags were going on my Monte Carlo SS.

    and the beat goes on.
    FIWI,
    orifice size. pressure = power. flow = speed.
