Pontiac GTO 2004-2006 - Drag bag tubing

Picked up a set of drag bags and got them mostly installed up to the T fitting. Just have to run the tube to the trunk. The guys on ls1gto are telling me to run the bags separately instead. How did you guys run your lines? Any advice?

I have mine ran seperatly. My right rear squats morre than the left so I have the right one around 6psi and the left at around 3psi. You can zipties and run the lines up through a hole that goes up into your trunk. I lables the hoses left and right.

Here is the writeup I reffered to.....

Only 3 and 6 psi? That's what you have them set at while you're at the strip?

No thats what I have them at for the street. Im running Saturday and plan to turn them up to around 10 and 15. Some people do more or less.

i have them too. i ran them seperate. i put them in the fender right infront of the tire just drilled a hole and mounted them there. so that way when you let some air out of your tires or put some air in then the drag bags air valve is right there (less going back and forth)

Run them independently, it's better for adjustability and easier to track down a leak.

Oh ok. 10-15 seems to be the norm. 20 is getting pretty high I was told. I just put mine in about 2 weeks ago, but I haven't had a chance to try them out yet. Everything is just tucked under the car and zip-tied for now as I ran out of time to get the hoses ran into the trunk.

Gotcha definitely gonna go ahead and do that then. Just out of curiosity, why exactly is it necessary to run 2 different pressures? Just plain old wear and tear?

because of torque..your car is gonna squat but not equal do to torque...so you ajust the pressure for how your car leaves..

I see. Thanks for the help guys, gonna finish hooking up those bad boys this weekend and hopefully get my car back on the road soon!

Body roll from getting into hard turns will be worse with the bags combined. Pressure on one side will just bleed air into the opposite air bag.

Running each bag independent is the way to go.

As with everything I do, threw together another video. lmk if you guys like it!
