1/4" manual valves and 3/8" air line

I have 3/8ths accuair on my 72 but I'm considering a budget air management system on a second truck. I've already got the air ride tech 1/4" paddle valves but found the system to be slow. Has anyone used these with bigger air line? I know it's only gonna flow so much but wasn't sure if the extra available volume in using 3/8" air line may speed it up a little?

Thanks, Wade

i'm subscribed. I want to see what's available also. 1/4 inch paddle valves are very dependable. I had a set of intermittent electrics valves. they would are up and air down intermittently.
