One thing I noticed is that the example pump someone showed earlier has both
output lines joined into one T connector, to make a single output line. If
airflow is a problem, then wouldn't it be better to keep them separate, with two
or more lines going to the system. You would join them together with a cross
feed lines to keep the pressure even. You would also put the air tank on the
side, instead of flowing through. If there's more pressure being produced than
the system needs at the moment, air goes in the tank, if there's less pressure,
air comes out of the tank.
