Great install marshall. did all the compression fittings come with the kit or is that something you guys decided to use? Im wondering if i can get the front/rear bags as well as the shocks from air runner? I dont need the whole kit.
Im sure the camber will help lay the car out more. I know it helped me...!

got the exhaust installed today. since i got the five axis kit of course its dual. the install is full custom to work around the install, the tips are huge and stick out a lil bit, pretty crazy looking. I will take and post some pics tomorrow. almost like JDM look but also seen a ton of german cars with that style exhaust tips. youll see tomorrow . . .

here is the install process that andrews car went through...
Ok guys here is my latest project with a members car. Thanks to Freddy at Autofashion! one of the vendors here..
Air runner install in a 2008 scion xb.
THis is the first one in Hawaii
I opted out of using the air runner paddle switches becuase of limited space and the amount of space it needs to be mounted becuase all the hoses that runs in the back of the switches. The only place i could mount it cleanly would have been in the center compartment between the seats. It made no sence to me in mounting it there becuase every time you wana use your air you have to open up the compartment.. IMO i rather have it with easy acces..
I am using a manifold valve setup from UAS.. choose these becuase it eliminates that bulky valves and all the fittings.. and so i could achive a very clean install.. the cost on the mainfolds actually come out cheaper than using those reg valves by the time you add in all the fittings you need.
The setup will be mounted on a custom frame that will use existing holes on the rear of the XB..
Here is the Tank, Comp and Manifold valve, and water trap. IF your going to attempt to this this set up using valves you will have to add a check valve after the water trap.. why after the water trap? just in case the water trap starts to leak the check valve will hold the air in the tank.
installed all the wires and hose.. Just finished mount the Guage in the cup holder and the switches by the traction control switch.. looks OEM..
Please note that.. these are not the air swtiches that the air runner kit comes with.. WE added manifold valves instead.. Air runner switches are big and bulky and will not fit here or anywhere cleanly like this on the gen 2
I used the Stock holes that were used for the tow hooks..
Installed and wired and works!
The rear..
before
SHocks are just a little shorter..
Rear Bags... Note top mounting bolt need to be cut.. air runner made it to long.. also lower mound bolts do not tighten supper tight.. AS instructiosn says only tillt he lock washer lays flat..
Installed
Fronts.
Installed and air hose ran and working
here it is guys!!! Done and one happy customer!

another update to the RS5. . . I might be wrong but as far as i know this was the first bagged RS5, and now i believe its the first with a five axis kit. dumped the kenstyle and upgraded to some subtle beauty. Much lower w the kit on. Again, thanks to Marshall for installing for me and rolling the fenders, also thanks to Al, install was in his garage and we used a bunch of his tools. These pics were from my phone at the install. will take better pics later. We were gonna camber the front but i got sold the wrong size bolts, think those were for the first gens. it will be cambered soon, hopefully it lets me tuck the front a lil more
at Rad Moto Sports gettin the exhaust fab'd
Marshall aka Master of the fender roller! lol
Al hookin up the heat

hahaha that video is pretty sick!!!
still got a ton of things planned. Money is always the only thing holding me back though. A few small things im gonna do real soon is camber the front wheels, tint the windows, either paint the headlights black or get some aftermarket ones, led tail lights, WeaponR header & S pipe. after that ill do more engine mods, dress up the engine, then ill make my way into the interior, thinking suede headliner and dash for now, that might change, full garson setup (ton of stuff), and of course a ridiculous sound system with a crazy install but keep it clean somehow, a bunch of lights by Varad. Add a butt load of fine detailed type things but thats the basic idea for now. only thing i need is another 15 grand and I think I should be good. . . donations are welcome, support the cause!!!! lol
