Default Viair OBA wiring question

Ok folks, I just got my Viair 400C in the mail on Saturday and set out to wire it up... The leads are way too short to make it to the battery side of the engine bay, so I'll have to extend it... Hence the question.

1. I had planned to wire it into my 30A relay box from WiredWagon. But noticed the included relay is 40A. Anybody running this compressor on a 30A relay or see a problem with it?

2. The above relay (30A) has a 30A fuse. Do I need to fuse it differently? The Viair instructions don't mention much.

3. What gauge wire should I run to the relay?

Thanks!

Apparently not a problem. Erik at wiredwagon mailed me right back. Relays are 35A. Draw 26A per website. Will try it out soon!
