Thread: 12 volt air compressor fit to Puma...advise please.

Thanks for all the replies.

This particular car has a security box fitted under the centre cubby so an X Box is probably not for this one.

I agree, a reservoir tank is a good idea and I'd already thought about that. I'm more concerned about where to fit a compressor, the tank can be remote and fitted where convenient under the car somewhere.

Cheers, Murray

I've just been looking at the Piranha website and they still sell the Big Red compressors, along with a few others.
If you read comparisons between compressors, I think the most important thing to note is, duty cycle. There is a huge difference, for example, the Big Red will puff away continuously for 6 tyres, but the Terrain Taimer TTAC1 will cut out before even inflating one 33" tyre (that's what I read anyway)

After a bit of a look online, there are quite a few compressors on offer, like everything these days, it can get a bit confusing.
