New game-changing Air Lift Performance 3H air suspension system provides advanced height and pressure control.

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. A powerful, reliable height and pressure system, 3H is the most advanced product ever created by Air Lift Performance.

A result of three years of development and testing, the new 3H system combines pressure-based control with ride height sensing technology to factor bothheight 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.

The 3H system is designed to improve the way consumers interact with their vehicles. The user-friendly controller, with a black, anodized, billet aluminum casing, features a full-color display with adjustable backlight  for at-a-glance status of height and pressure conditions, tank pressure displays, and four corner height or pressure readings for individual air springs. The buttons on the soft-touch keypad provide physical feedback so the system can be adjusted without having to look at the controller.  The controller can be dash-mounted or installed in any custom configuration, with a micro-USB cable flush-mounted on the back of the controller to maintain a low profile.

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

The compact, fully-integrated manifold features advanced 32-bit processing power to drive the height and pressure algorithms for precise four-corner control.  A unique, angular sensor arm provides improved height-sensing, reduced tension and increased sensor life. It has been torture-tested over 3,000,000 cycles, simulating 300,000 miles driven, for maximum performance. Air Lift Performance also conducted rigorous environmental testing on all hardware and software.

The manifold and controller were baked to 167 degrees Fahrenheit (74 degrees Celsius), and chilled to minus 40 degrees Fahrenheit. To ensure the manifold will stay free of water and dust, a 1,500 PSI water spray test was performed, and 100 percent of manifolds produced are end of line tested using advanced validation equipment. 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 at the right 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 then upgrade to the 3H system.

Project SportWagen: Going Stage 2 with APR

    When we last left you, the humble little SportWagen was fresh from the development process with our friends at AWE Tuning, sporting a new downpipe, exhaust and intake, allowing things to breathe a bit easier.  The car sounded great, but there was no getting around the fact that our wagon was still quite, well, slow.   While we realize that nothing we do to the Golf SportWagen at this point will make it a race car, we still felt compelled to do something .  To put it bluntly, we had a fever, and the only cure was more power. Flash forward a few hours, and we found ourselves at Waterfest, staring down APR’s palatial spread and the numerous tuned vehicles surrounding it.  Earlier in the year, APR had hinted to us that their 1.8 TSI files would be quite impressive, and based on what they were able to do with the 2.0 TSI found in the new GTI and our time in their Golf R, we knew it’d be worth the wait.  So with this in mind, we lined our G...

Project Golf SportWagen- Intro

I’ve never really been one for SUVs and crossovers.  The current offerings aren’t the body-on-frame, go-anywhere specialty tools I remember from my youth, and what they lack in capability, they also lack in on-road performance. The current crop isn’t terribly good at handling or being efficient, which in my opinion are major components of our ideal driving experience.  So when it comes to space or utility, I usually look for something of the wagon variety- and it seems that I’m not alone. We hit quite a few shows around the east coast each summer, and we see modified Jetta SportWagens at nearly every event. Even amongst common consumers, these cars are highly sought-after. They don’t depreciate much, making even early Mk 5 2.5 versions expensive in comparison to other Jettas or Golfs of the same vintage. This year, Volkswagen launched their latest SportWagen, which is now billed as a Golf.  In many ways, this latest SportWagen is the best yet and it has certai...

Volkswagen Group Records Best Ever First-Half-of-Year Sales

With 5.5 million vehicles in customer hands after the first six months of 2018, the Volkswagen Group is seeing the best performance of its history. Group deliveries increased significantly in all core regions,” said Fred Kappler, head of sales for the Group. “Our core brands recorded strong growth in the first half year.” For the year-to-date, all of Volkswagen’s brands had sales bumps. MAN, SEAT, and Skoda led the sales charge with performances 24%, 17% and 11% better than the previous year. The big sellers, too, had strong sales periods, with Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles, Audi, and Volkswagen sales rising 3.5%, 4.5% and 6.3% respectively. That last figure is particularly good new for the board, since Volkswagen alone sold more than 3 million vehicles in the first half of 2018. As Kappler stated, the numbers are equally good when you break sales down by region. Brazil and Russia were the most improved markets (22% and 20%, respectively), while strong sales in Europe and China (u...
