I don't know how the air cylinders are, but my friend has a bagged truck and its a blast. He hasn't put that much money in it and its pretty fast. If you get the right stuff I'm sure the cylinders can get the car off the ground some.

If ya wanna hop, then get fast bags with 3/8" lines and scuba tanks with a compressor. That will let you bounce and changed your ride height at the flick of the switch. I recommend the scuba tanks as they are relatively small but hold enough air for about 36-38 raise and lowers. If you don't want to run a compressor then you can just hit the gas station when you run low on air. The most trick system is 17-18" rims with a 30-40 series skin, 2-3" body drop, lowereing coils, frame connectors, nitro shocks, fastbags w/scubas - w/compressor - w/3/8" lines. The car drives like a dream, totally legal and completely adjustable. Hydros are illegal in most places and are a major fire hazard. As for expense....you can get a complete Fastbag setup for @ $2500 CAD if you install it yourself. Expect to pay @ $1500 to have someone else install it as it is labour intensive. Trust me, the systems are sweet and I have never met or heard of anyone that wasn't happy with their fastbags.
