Compressor and valve help!

[a squarecan]

Hey guys,

I will be baggin my new toy in the near future and I am starting to order parts for it now, so that I tear into it I can make quick progress and not have to wait for parts everytime I turn around. I already have my bags (2B7's up front and Fstone 224c's in back) I have a pair of SMC 3/8 valves and a 5 gallon tank. I am looking to run an 8 valve set up so I need to pick up some more valves my question is are the SMC valve I have a quality valve? I am not looking for super quick fill/dump so I am looking to run 3/8. I just wanna make sure if I am going to buy more I am getting quality valves.

My other question is what compressor are you guys using? I have heard so many different things I dont know which one I want to get. Like I said I am running a 5 gallon tank and I may eventually run 2 compressors to the 1 tank, but for now I am just going to run 1. I am not intrested in an EDC, but I was looking at the Viar 380, 400 or 450. I have most people are running 1 of the 3 and I am just curious what you guys think.

Any feedback will be greatly appriciated!
