Yep the PS pump has a active fluid pump attached to rear and this pump supplies the extreme pressure to hold up body. The system holds up 35% or 1400 pounds.

This 6 HP extra pump is why along with 200+ pounds of extra system weight that the ACTIVE Q gets 2 mpg LESS compared to conventional suspension.

6 HP creates a lot of heat which must be cooled by auxillary cooler and fan.

The bumper the road the hotter things get compared to sitting still.
