Teaser of my Accuair SwitchSpeed Controller Retrofitted to Hydraulics
A HUGE Thank you to Mike Alexander from Accuair and Ryan Parma (luciferi here on VSC)!
Still not 100% dialed in, but it's close! Now to find a nifty spot to put it... :biggthumpup:
In the video, you can see how utilizing the pulsating valves works great for slowing the lift of the car.

Nice, I just wish there was something more simple than that, but not as old school as big metal switches. I've been trying to find some low profile or plastic swithes with 12 prongs. Know of anything??

so if the speed switch works does that mean the e-level system will work also? can we get some pics of the dump setup?

The E-Level system is a different animal for my particular setup.
My setup looks the same as it did before...
And Mike, if you're not into the 12 prongs, then you can run six prongs with diodes like I had to originally. Worked fine. Maybe you like these?

Dakine brah!!! :biggthumpup:

What else do I need? What diodes did you have? Those would work well for me. I'm not mr electronics, but I can follow schematics no problem as you already know.

Well, since a few of the prongs will share multiple connections, the diodes prevent any jumping. Since I'm not Mr. Electronics either, we basically just placed a diode on each connector and it worked, LOL, but if you PM luciferi, he could give you a legitimate answer.

this is awesome, i was actually talking to a minitruck buddy and a dude with a juiced 5series about possibly trying this... nice to see that it is actually possible.

thats impressive!! how do you get the pump to push less oil down the hoses? sounds like the motors are running on dead batteries :shrug:

Yeah, the car had pretty dead batteries when I made the vid...
As far as pushing less oil, the valves pulsate (as well as the motor), so they open and close quickly to not allow as much oil through...
It's not something I'd do every time, but in order to fine tune the height, it's great.
