is air ride good if building for performance?
i was just wondering if air ride would be any good. if i am building up my car performance wise. would it be able to to still perform just as well? i figured if i uped the power in my car that the air ride might have problems due to the increse of the load it would have to deal with.
all help is welcomed. thx terry joe

I've talked with reps from companies that make air ride systems like air cylinders (NI to be specific) and the guy I talked to told me you CANNOT do mountain road driving, or auto-x with air ride systems because you risk popping the bags, or damaging the cylinders to whichever system you get. They are not built for performance, but simply just for show and to raise and lower your car at the flick of a switch just like hydrolics.
