thats what im using it works fine. i run 8lbs driver side and 16lbs on the pass. side. to help keep the car from rolling over on the launch. it works good.

why not just get an anti roll bar to keep the car flat on the launch?

cause you have to unhook them for street duty unless you want to knock your fillings out. where as the airbags i can change inside the car no crawling under to unhook like a anti roll bar.
