I don't see why not - schrader valve is the thin bike one, and my hand bike pump can do 100psi for race bikes, so I don't see why an electric compressor can't do 250 psi unless I'm missing something.

Was just seeing if anyone had any contacts in the compressed air business. An electric doo dad wont cut it. I'll see my local welding company for Nitrogen/Argon tank and regulator.

Was looking for contacts. Wanted to save some hassle tracking it down. They are in the 3-4 hundred $ zone. I'm sure CT doesnt have.

It looks sick as hell though. Esp with some track time, the pipes and canisters start to blue a little. Looks and sounds amazing. U should get a used one. They pop up once in a while.

If you had a symphony under your hood then you would care about the exhaust.

It's the mod that gives me the MOST enjoyment every time I drive it and the reason why I never turn on my radio.

agree with george... its a light duty jack but its light as hell compared to my beastly black jack from costco... i like the sturdiness of mine but the weight kills me everytime i need to move in and out of storage.

A fully loaded e90 335XI weights 1.7 tons, and you will never lift its full weight with a jack, you always jack 50 to 60% of it......

lol... actually i think your jack is still lighter than mine. i'll bring mine along next time for you to try my extra heavy duty jack... i love it for the sturdiness but i dont think my jack was ever meant to be carried around.
