After having to wait forever to fill one tire after running a trail and then having to nag air off of everyone else I decided it was finally time to upgrade my own compressor. 


After hours and hours of research I concluded that the best compressor for the money was the Superflow MV50 by Q industries. I was able to find it instock at o-riley's and went and picked it up. 


Because I have ABS I was unable to mount the compressor in the ABS tray but I was able to get it to fit by moving it up towards the grille a bit. 


I mounted the compressor with one of the bolts form the windshield washer fluid bracket and then drilled some more screws threw the other feet holes.



I will hardwire the power cord tomorrow to the battery but for now I have the alligator clips held onto the compressor handel to keep then in place.


I also upgrade the tire stem connector from the twist-on to an air chuck to help make it faster and easier. 

Over all I am very impressed with the compressor and the installation so far and I will find out tomorrow how well it really works on the trail
