High pressure yes, but cfm??,, based on how often you need to fill tires and use an impact tool. How many workers at the same time. If you fill a tire a couple of times a year, you might go smaller. If you're doing it 15 times a day, you really need to go big. I switched to a quincy when my ir 175 psi went bad and have never regretted it. Side note is that its much much quieter and a but faster as its a fully balance 4 cyl,, two opposed balanced primaries, and two opposed balanced secondaries. And usa made to boot. industrial life rating is about double over the IR which is mostly made in china now. form internuts..
The average size air compressor you need is a 4-5 CFM @90 PSI for a impact wrench. For instance, an impact wrench with a 1 drive will need a 10 CFM @90 PSI, a drive will need a 4 CFM @90 PSI, and will need a 3 CFM @90 PSI.
I find a 12.5 cfm compressor about right and find that static air line pressure of 125 lbs works best for the big impacts on tractor work. I got the qt54, a bit bigger but the price was too good to pass up. ymmv.
