yeah....aside from that dumb plate thing its mounted to and that stupid hose thingie the basic design is the same.....i wouldnt doubt if harbour frieght bought a buncha those compressors from viar to sell that tire pump thingie and unknowingly just provided us with a new source for air compressors.Im going to the local harbour freight to investigate....

i already checked it out, they do look almost identical, but they do not have the same specs as a 450. i don't think they are rated 150 or 100% duty cycle.

some offroad guys have already started using a look a like that you can get from Pep Boys. I looked at it myself and it is the similar size to a 450, but with purple anodizing. Seems ot be close to the same specs as well.

It's been working just as well for the offroad guys so far.

Since that is 30amp draw, i'd say it has the same motor as the 400

ok i retract my previous statement it is 150 psi. but i still wouldn't trust it for my air ride.

Why would you want a copy of a viair, when the viairs themselves arnt really that good? Just my two cents
