relay help

ok well i bought a 2nd compressor for my air ride,i read up on how much these 2 will draw and its 32 amps
now i read up on afew forum and they run 2 usually.i recently bought a relay that is 30 amps
now my question is my new relay is a 5 pin so it has enough spots to run both compressors can i run it all off this 1 relay or will this cause problems?
i dont mind wiring up the 2 but its just alot less wiring i have to do if i can run it off the one is all
so any help here would be great

Re: relay help

Well it depends on how many amps the compressor pulls. Realy at a point of too much power, at my shop the cars we do with big audio or air ride. We use a isolatore(SP) witch is like a relay as it only conects power when it has a switched power input. Same thing you see in older cars under the hood for the starter.
