I'd definitely go with an AZ. Everyone's loving the speeds and quality of them.. You could always sell the Viair 450 to put the money towards one too. The colored Air Zeniths look pretty cool also.. hit me up if you are looking for a deal on one.

check out this thread: http://www.s10forum.com/forum/showthread.php?t=211676&page=2&pp=30

DJDAudio had been doing all kinds of tests, they're not faster than 2 450s, but close:

"(1) AZ comp 110-145 is 3 min 14 sec on a 12 gal, 35amps

(2) viair 450C's 110-145 2 min 40 sec on a 12 gal, 40amps"

roughly an extra 30 seconds or so (at those pressures/size of tank) so they're awesome. Adding 1 450 is probably more practical since it's temporary anyway.

THE AZ WILL RUN QUICKER WITH A VIAR LEADER HOSE ON IT THAT MIGHT HELP ALSO
