Specs--
Viair 480C--200 psi compressor with Viair compressor bracket/mount
5 gal tank
165/200 psi pressure switch
Viair 40 amp relay
200 psi regulator
Wired with 8 ga Wire for the primary power supply
Master Power switch in dash (Last pic with red light)
25' rubber hose with 3' swivel end hose
2 quick connectors off the regulator
No, it's not too bad. I'd rather have it inside and extend the life of it than outside and in the elements.

How long does it take to air up the tank? I really want to upgrade my old school ARB compressor, and hook up a tank. It takes about 10 seconds just to charge up enough for the locker.
It takes 2.5 minutes to go from 165 to 200 psi. To fill the tank from empty it takes about 6 minutes or so. Even a small amount of air in the tank will actuate the locker. I can run an impact with this system as well as air up after a run.

I run the 450C in the Ranger the front locker can be actuated pretty quickly (~40PSI) I have a regulator on mine for the front to keep it at 90PSI while the tank sits at 150PSI. Takes about a minute with no load to get to 90PSI on a 2.5G tank. I have run my impact and most of the air tools I own off of this setup.
