thats funny i am willing to help anyone get a setup but the install is to crazy for me...lol.... you might have to get it installed or i know a few peeps on here that have done it themselves...so... but i can get you to the right and cheapest places... and pretty much tell you all that you will need...
and i have been waiting to see a bagged TC that would be awesome... and if you want to know what it would look like all the way up just check out lupe's car...lol....j/k...lol.. thats funny though

ok here we go... BAGGED XB......the list from memory
FRONTS--- Easystreet front bags.. positive camber issue but you can buy a camber- bolt from NAPA
Universal Air fronts with a custom made bracket from Hack shack- i suggest this order it from universal air and then have Jay at the hack shack weld your bracket onto your strut it cost like a 100 bucks but worth it you use your stock strut and the bag slide over it.. no camber issue there
i have cylinders and the last pair in the metroplex made from SAI i actually have 2 pairs of cylinders and the second need to be replaced....
REARS--- must have a Xb bracket for the rear............... but you can use Slam- specialties or easystreet rear setup i suggest you use a convoluted and not the easystreet rear sleeve bag from all that i have heard its not worth it...
Compressor--- many options here VIAR.. witch almost all of us run... and there is the new air zennith thats the bad boy... i suggest if you use the viar air atleast get a 460 to 480 just for the fill time and pressure..... if not use both
valves--- you will need 4 fill valves and 4 dump valves for a four wheel control.. i highly reccomend this.... they also come in packs... i have 3/8 valves
senders--- are usually on the valves thats what tells the gauge what the pressure is inside the bag...
air line--cheapest thing youll buy... you will need abouti would say about 50-75 feet of airline to be safe....
tank--- they run about 35-50 bucks if you run a tank on the outside like most you will haev to run no more than 5 gallons i have heard of peeps using more but.. i have never seen it.. and it has to be the long skinny 5 gallon not the fat stubby it wont fit...
gauges-- dakota digital all the way the needle gauges suck and usally are not back lit so you are screwed at night...
switches-- i highly recommend the AVS 9 switch box you have all control over the whole car.. each corner..plus all the goodies...
and the most expensive part is fittings.. yes there only like a dollar a piece but you need alot of them...lol... and you will never get all what you need so make sure you do your install near a home depot or lowes..lol...
make sure you get a diagram on how you want to run your system and them you should have a good estimate on how many fittings you will need..
extras... teflon tape...about 100 feet of 2 line double insulated wire.. for all the switches and gauges you will also need a large power wire for the compressor-s.. and if i think of anything else ill add it..

Any input from the Pooty is much appreciated.

Airbags are def next on my list of mods. Unfortunately with the new job situation it will probably be october before I can bag it. That is the near future for me though. It is a def mod.

Ned the universal air kit doesnt get low enough with out a few changes... there is a cup on your stock strut.. where you spring currently sits... take it to jay obviuosly with it out of the car... and have him cut and re-weld that cup at a lower point so you can get low..... elegance XB has the universal kit and complained to me cause he didnt get low at all so that is what fixes it.... you still might not be as low as me but you will be close...
Snicka had a new set of struts done with his universal and now im worried i wont be the lowest.......
and not sure what the U-A kit uses for a compressor...also TRUST me on this one there never is such a thing as a complete kit you will need something some kits are closer than others.... but you will always be missing something.......
and if it serves me correctly the last time i saw that U-A kit it was like 2300 dollars
the list from bens stuff is like only 1500 dollars but thats with a 380 comp. but a 460-480 is only about a 50 dollar diff..
and Snicka's was about 1700-2000 cause of the custom work done by Hack Shack-- with the cup reset.. and all plus he a is running a AIR ZENNETH those are 300 anyway.....
hope this helps you guys love to do what i can when i can
