As far as CFM, around 30. 1" gun is thirsty, and I am usually airing up tires while changing another...
Oh, I don't think they will miss those last 20 psi in the tires...They have 90 already.

180 psi? If we had run that in the cabinet shop I used to work, the guys would be giving themselves embolisms weekly. I bet you have a healthy respect for machinery and stored energy.

I had a VMAC. Terribly expensive to purchase AND maintain. And the air is SO wet!
