Product details
If a 2013 to 2017 Honda Accord is your daily driver, Airtech Basic turns it into something that can sit low at the meet and rise for speed bumps. All the hardware arrives together: four struts, the Viair 444C, a 5-gallon steel tank, paddle valves and a dual-needle 200 psi gauge for front and rear pressure, with hoses, wiring and manuals.
Paddle valves keep it analog. There is no module to program, and the gauge is mounted next to the switches so pressure is visible all the time. The page says the 444C can lift the car from lowest to maximum height in as little as four seconds, and describes Basic and Deluxe as taking four to seven.
Each strut has 36 levels of damping, which is where the Accord picks up its character. Insert the supplied knob, then turn counterclockwise for a softer ride or clockwise for a stiffer one. Adjustable lower mounts fine-tune height at any pressure, the same way KSport coilovers do. A professional installer is recommended; afterward, recheck the system at 500 miles or one month, and test for leaks at 70 psi with soapy water. The Acura TLX from 2015 to 2018 is also listed. Check fitment in the year, make and model checker.
Supported features
36 levels of damping adjustment let you dial in the air struts. Insert the included damping knob and turn softer (counterclockwise) or stiffer (clockwise).
Air bags are engineered to match the vehicle. Sleeve-type and double-bellow bags are used depending on the OEM suspension design.
Like KSport coilovers, the struts allow fine-tuning of ride height at any pressure through an adjustable lower mount.
Chosen for reliability and performance; the single 444C can raise the car from lowest to maximum height in as little as four seconds. Airtech Basic and Deluxe raise in 4–7 seconds; Pro Plus and Executive raise faster, in 2–5 seconds.
Paddle valves control front and rear bags; the dual-needle gauge mounts beside the switches so pressure is always visible.
Camber-adjustable top mounts can be added on certain MacPherson-strut applications.
