Nothing wrong with the standard compressor providing the air system is sound. Cheap to buy and easy to maintain and refurb.
If only using for the air-suspension, yes. If you're powering tools off it and airlockers and so forth then one with a higher duty cycle required.
Well i was referring to a standard car being used as it was designed to be used. Butchered ones don't count.![]()
I have an air outlet off the tank on mine in the loadspace, which I use to check/top up the air in the tyres - saved me a lot of hassle and got me out of problems a couple of times now - so it's a 'butchering' I'm happy I did.
But then I 'double butchered' my system and fitted a second P38 compressor in next to the EAS box to give the system a bit more power when using it to inflate tyres etc.
