Description
Speed humps, petrol stations and steep drives mean the Maserati GranTurismo is calling out for AirRide. This bolt-on kit fits the GranTurismo, maintains the awesome handling and allows customers to lift the vehicle to clear obstacles and avoid incurring tens of thousands of pounds of damage – to front and rear bumpers and splitters and side skirts. In the long term this kit could work out free!
The mechanical suspension on the corners is 100% bolt-on, with no fabrication needed whatsoever, and any garage should be able to fit it. It’s so simple you may even be able to fit it yourself! This kit is a bolt-on conversion, so your car will be in the garage for as little time as possible.
Here’s exactly what you get in your kit:
- Two front GranTurismo performance air struts
- Two rear GranTurismo performance air struts
- Four air bags, one for each corner (built into struts)
- Necessary brackets, bolts and fittings to install the system
You can also choose to include an air management system of your choosing. This allows you to get the very best from your air and adjust your ride height while on the move. See the ‘Options’ tab for more info.
Last but not least, each Air Lift Performance kit from AirRide, with air management, also includes a VIAIR 444C compressor or equivalent. The compressor is integral to the smooth running of your air suspension and the 444C allows you to run your system as much as you want at high pressures. It is compact too, so is easily stored on any Maserati.
If your system needs are not met or if you have questions please don’t hesitate to email or call us on 08007720315.
Options
Car kits can be supplied with or without air management, although going without isn’t advisable if you have air on all four corners of your vehicle.
Air management allows you to get the very best from your kit at all times. It allows the ride height to be adjusted for road, weather and load conditions, while also giving you a street-skimming stance when the time is right.
We have four main management options for cars at AirRide. Read on to find out more:
No compressor, no tank
You can have a car kit with no air management system, but this is not recommended. With this option you will receive the air bags, brackets and struts required for a basic air suspension system, but no compressor or tank, as without some form of control system the compressor and tank would not be able to function correctly.
Manual Paddle Control (MPC)
MPC is controlled by four buttons, one for each air bag. These buttons act like electric-window switches, meaning you can either raise or lower the amount of pressure in each air bag by pressing up and down on each switch. The switches will normally fit somewhere on your dashboard.
MPC comes with an aluminium, 100% duty cycle compressor with up to 200 PSI and an air tank, so you can adjust your ride height whenever you wish (as long as it’s safe). It also comes with twin gauges and a tank gauge.
Solenoid control kit
Solenoid kits are controlled in the same way as an MPC kit, with four electric window-style buttons. However, solenoids act much faster than manual controls.
You can get either standard or advanced solenoids from AirRide. Advanced solenoids run much faster than the standard ones and can be installed a lot easier, as the come in blocks of two, rather than one.
Our solenoid kit comes with a 100% duty cycle compressor and tank for instant adjustment, as well as twin gauges and a tank gauge.
Digital computer system
The Air Lift 3P computer system electronically controls the amount of pressure in each air bag. This can be controlled either with a wired controller or a phone app. You can also set up to five pre-set heights, meaning you can slam or raise your car with just a single touch. The computer will also automatically alter your height to allow for road conditions. This is also the easiest system to install, meaning you’ll save money on installation, as compared to the MPC kit or solenoid kits.
The computer system also comes with an aluminium 100% duty cycle compressor with up to 200 PSI and an air tank, allowing for constant adjustment.
Other options
If you would prefer an air management system other to those listed, please feel free to call or e-mail us. We are happy to discuss your personal requirements and make sure you get the management system that is right for you.
Fitment
Although this kit is specifically for the 2007-onward GranTurismo, we may also be able to supply it for other Maseratis. We do also supply a kit for the Maserati Ghibli M157. Even if we don’t provide a kit for your specific car, we can still provide air suspension for most cars. Please feel free to call us on 0800 772 0315 or email us to discuss options for your GranTurismo or other Maserati.
One of the main features of AirRide Gold is that they are bolt-on kits. This means that your local garage should be able to fit the kit without much difficulty. Alternatively, give us a call (0800 772 0315) and we can arrange the installation on your behalf. We are also happy to talk you or your garage through the installation process.
