Game-Changing Air Lift Performance 3H Air Suspension System Provides Advanced Height and Pressure Control

LANSING, Mich. – Air Lift Performance, a leader in high-performance air suspension systems, has taken air management technology to the next level with the new Air Lift Performance 3H system. The most advanced product ever created by the design and engineering experts at Air Lift Performance , 3H is the result of three years of development and testing. This powerful, reliable height and pressure system brings together the latest technology, and excellent design to offer an innovative user experience.

Air Lift Performance 3H combines pressure-based control with ride height sensing technology, allowing the system to factor both height and pressure together, so the right height can be achieved without radical differences in pressure. With up to five custom presets, the system quickly adjusts to and maintains height and/or pressure with the push of a button.

A major objective for the 3H system was to improve the way consumers interacted with their vehicles. One key aspect is the carefully-designed controller, crafted to be very easy to hold and use. Inside of its black anodized, billet aluminum casing, the controller has a full-color TFT display with an adjustable backlight, it provides at-a-glance status of height and pressure conditions and displays the tank pressure, with four corner height or pressure readings to control each individual air spring. The intuitive design of the soft touch keypad features buttons that allow physical feedback, so the system can be adjusted without having to look at. the controller.

The keypad can be configured to work horizontally, allowing the controller to be turned sideways and used in a landscape position. The threaded holes in the back allow the user to mount the control in their dash, or in any custom configuration. A mico USB cable flush-mounts on the back of the controller so that it can maintain a low, clean profile in the vehicle.

An innovative alternative to using the controller is the free mobile app available for iOS and Android devices (coming soon) which communicates directly with the manifold. No additional components are required, and users receive the latest system firmware h updates through the app directly to the manifold and controller over the Bluetooth connection.

The compact, fully integrated manifold of the 3H system is designed with the ECU, manifold and Bluetooth module in one complete unit for a clean and simple install. The single harness connection also simplifies wiring, and the overall compact design, harness connector location, and rotatable logo plate allow for limitless placement options.

Advanced 32-bit processing power drives the height and pressure algorithms for precise 4-corner control, with height sensing technology that provides the ability to control the system with a unique, angular sensor arm that improves upon the straight design that was available in the market. Designed to reduce tension and ensure increased sensor life, it has been torture-tested over 3,000,000 cycles (simulating 300,000 miles driven) for maximum performance.

All hardware and software have been subjected to rigorous environmental, real world tests. The manifold and controller were baked to 167°F (74°C) and arctic chilled to -40°F to simulate various climates. The manifold was subjected to 1,500 PSI water spray to ensure that the unit would stay free of water and dust. On top of that, 100% of the manifolds are end of line tested on state-of-the-art validation equipment. Like the Performance Series suspension produced by Air Lift Performance, the control system is designed for maxium durability and performance. Air Lift Performance incorporated an accelerometer in the manifold to allow the system to detect movement of the vehicle, so it can make accurate and intelligent adjustments at the right time. To handle changes in load or driving conditions such a cornering, the system’s anti-cross loading and axle equalization allows the system to consider both height and pressure measures together – to achieve the right height without radical differences in pressure.

The 3H features a show mode that allows users to turn the car off and continue to control the system with the controller or the free mobile app. A rise on start function allows users to turn the key and the system takes the car right to the programmed ride height.

For clean and easy installation, the 3H system’s key components require less drilling, wiring and take up less space than other air management systems. The user-friendly focus of the 3H system continues after installation with easy to follow calibration documents and intuitive controller menus.

Created to offer maximum system value, the 3H system comes with everything for height and pressure control, and can be connected to existing compatible height sensors.. Users can also start with the Air Lift Performance 3P pressure based system and upgrade to a 3H system later with a height system upgrade.

Waterfest Moves to Atco Dragway

Waterfest 24 will be held at Atco Dragway, in Atco, New Jersey. The summer event will take place at its new venue on July 21 and 22. Long held in Englishtown, New Jersey, the festival has been such a large part of the VW scene that the latest iteration of the Golf even comes with optional “Englishtown” wheels . The new venue, however, is an NHRA drag track a scant 52 miles southwest of Englishtown. The ¼ mile drag track opened in 1960, which makes it the oldest drag strip in New Jersey. The announcement came today on a social media post that announced the new location. Waterfest is North America’s largest VW/Audi show. As many 20,000 people show up for the annual show, making the second largest show in the world—with Worthersee being number one. 2018 will be Waterfest’s 24 th year in existence.

Macau Gets Messy with 16-Car Pileup

The Macau Grand Prix is always good for an accident or two or 16— you may remember Audi’s race ending crash last year —and this year’s event didn’t disappoint. It didn’t take long for things to get messy on the tight road circuit. On the opening lap of the qualifying race a 16-car pileup caused the race to be suspended. Things kicked off when Daniel Juncadella hit a wall on the exit of Police bend, one of the tightest parts of the already tight circuit. The following car of Raffaele Marciello was able to avoid the carnage, but Laurens Vanthoor, who was in the upside-down Audi that ended the race last year, could not avoid Juncadella and together they blocked up the road pretty much completely. “I couldn’t see him [Juncadella] at first. Then I saw the car standing still,” Vanthoor told Motorsport. “I tried to brake but it was just understeering and I couldn’t do anything. There’s room for one car there and you’re blind.” Fourteen more cars would eventually crash into the corner c

The First of its Kind: Integrated Engineering Releases Highly-Anticipated IE450T MK6 Golf R Turbo Kit

After two long years of development, the team at Integrated Engineering has finally announced the release of their IE450T kit for the MK6 Golf R. With their turbo kit bolted on right out of the box, the sport AWD hatch is transformed into a 450bhp monster, with hardly any noticeable increase in spool time. In fact, 435 ft-lbs of torque are achieved at all four wheels, at a mere 3300rpm! By now you are probably asking yourself how this is even possible on a 2.0L engine that made nearly half that power from the factory. By employing true twin-scroll technology into the cast turbo manifold and pairing it with a state-of-the-art BorgWarner EFR turbocharger, IE was able to keep spool time at a minimum and bring the fastest-spooling big turbo setup to the market. “We wanted to offer a kit that would dramatically increase the power output without making the car lose its amazing street-friendly drivability,” mentioned one of the IE engineers. We are told the IE450T leaves the car driving jus
