I have the air runner kit.. its not an srt but i love the air runner kit. I've had it for over a year and a half and no problems as of yet. The air runner kit goes down nice and slow and you can hold the switches until it stops moving when you drop it. I've seen a video of the uas and they have to press the down switch a couple times so it doesn't slam dowm. Robert you are gonna love the air runner kit and the installation only took two nights after work
As far as them slamming down, any air system will do that if you are not running a slow down/silencer. They make adjustable slow down/silencers that I am running on my car. I can adjust them to drop as slow or fast as I want. The air runner might be slower dropping because of several reasons. Could be orifice size in the bag itself, valve size, line size, or different slow downs.
Doesn't the Air Runner kit come with the manual slow valves that you have to route the air line on the switch themselves (inside the cockpit)? I know they started to add electric valves afterewards for an upgrade.
Yes it does

But how you word it makes it a blanket statement as to a reason to not purchase the UAS kit over the Air Runner kit. I was merely stating a reason that the car in the video would drop that fast.
Let's end this debate who ever is purchasing the Air runner kit post up every item you get in the kit I will post the items here from the UAS kit you will see a clear cut difference in the 2 kits and why the UAS kit is a better purchase. Along with these items that Zack has listed in his kit you get the best customer service and a company that actually stands behind their product.
I have personaly compared the kits side by side and UAS wins hands down.
F.B.S.S. SYSTEM INCLUDE
2 VIAIR 480C, 200 PSI, 100% DUTY CYCLE
1 200 PSI PRESSURE SWITCH
1 SWITCH BOX (Hand Held 9 Switch or Ash Tray Mounted 3 Switch)
8 "Blow Proof" 1/2" AIR SOLENOID VALVE
2 UNIVERSAL AIR SUSPENSION AERO SPORT 9"

1 D.O.T. APPROVED FITTING & HOSES FOR F.B.S.S

Just because to you its a hands down winner doesn't mean it will be the same for another and that doesn't make it better. They both are a great kit. When I bought the air runner kit a lil over 2 yrs ago I didn't see any information on the UAS kit to compare . Again I think they are both a great kit. I just like mine better cuz thats the one I have, nothing against UAS. They both have F.B.S.S. and work about the same.

That is why I am asking someone that has the air runner kit to post up what it comes with. I am not saying you have a bad kit on your car. I am trying to inform those that are trying to decide which kit to get and show what the differences are in the kits thats all.

Some good posts here!! I respect the opinions of those with both kits, and am interested in seeing the differences to make my own determination whether I buy one over the other. Just hope that that is ok with the thread starter, and doesn't erupt in a match of wills.

I think it comes down to personal preference on which kit is better. Granted I haven't seen the components of the Air Runner kit, nor have any first hand experience with that kit, so can only comment about UAS kit. I believe the "they seem head and shoulders above UAS" comment made by the thread starter is what erupted this. I was merely educating someone that may have been ill informed.
I too would be interested to know what makes the Air Runner kit "head and shoulders above UAS".
