I have the ARC4000E compressor kit , i' ve already ordered a extra tank and compressor , will this give me a little bit more speed on the rise time? or will I just gain a bit more play time?

You will gain more play time, no more speed. Speed is mostly in the pressure and valve/line size of your air lines. The kit you purchased is more for economy than speed, you just added to the play time. So you can raise and dump it a few times without having the compressors kicking in as often. As with my kit, I would like a compressor and tank added on but I' m happy with the speed of the Big Reds pushing through 3/8" lines. You would have to upgrade your valves and your lines, not just one or the other to increase your speed from your standpoint.

It will increase the speed a bit too. Especially if you are running over 100psi and you are running out of air before you get there.

the compressor has no real world speed #' s to prove it will make it faster. As sprax said it' s all valves and line size. Along with if there are any 90degree fittings as well.

Thanks for all the help guys. These were just a few questions I was curious about before I install the system, but can' t do the install until my shockwaves are delivered. Slow delivery placed order last Tuesday.

I saw the order in there for the rear kit but not the front Shockwaves. Did you order them from someone else?

YEAH I ORDERED THE SHOCKWAVES FROM STREETBEATCUSTOMS.COM BUT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT THEY WOULD BE DROP SHIPPED FROM ART. MAYBE , MAYBE NOT ALL I KNOW IS I HAVE SOME 849.00 PARTS FLOATING AROUND SOMEWHERE.

I didn' t know there was a kit out there for the trailblazer? Or are you custom fabbing everything up?
