What model are the pumps?

They are thomas model number 315 pumps.[&o]

Are you going to use 2 pressure switches or 1 pressure switch and a relay?

Let me give you a rundown on what i have, Its a 36 five window pro street coupe ,i already have the bags installed on all four corners and the air lines running through the frame, i have a 5 gal. tank, two 315 compressors, air rides eight seleniod control block, sombody told me that two compressors would be better, so really what i need to know the best way to hook them up so that i' m getting the most out of the system, i do`nt know if i need two pressure switches, what i guess i need are some options to decide upon thanks[8|

Yes loco' s diagram shows the best way to do it. We have those relays if you need one they are like 30 bucks.

you can use a way smaller wire on the pressure switch. the 8ga is pretty big. the only current running through that wire and the pressure switch is what the relay needs to stay closed, which is in the milli amps. I would worry more about the (1) 40 amp relay. Most of the people that use 1 of those either SPST or SPDT relays on 2 comprssors, that I know, burn the relay up eventually. You would be better off with a larger amp rated " constant duty" solenoid/relay. IMO

Baggedbirds no worries all the relays we send out are now 70 amp.
