20 gallon tank, 2 hp motor, 5.5 CFM @90 psi.
I want something in the way of a 60 or 80 gallon but am going to wait until we are no longer renting to invest in something like that. I do not want to pay someone to wire up some 220 in my rental house. This will satisfy my needs for now.
Terry, definitely want to run hardline on either side of the garage with a filter/lubricator setup. I hate having lengths of hose lying around. Again though, the fact that is a rental house means I do not want to create excessive holes/mounting points.
The bitch is quiet too - I love it. I hate oil free and other maintenance free compressors. They are not designed for serious duty cycle work and are loud as hell. This one is not bad, you really do not have to shout over this thing to be heard in the garage.

Nice, I was thinking about getting a craftsman, like that but wasn't sure.
You need one of these, Dave.

nice man :)
I started using the Ingersoll Cordless Impact tools and totally prefer them over air tools because they are more portable, quieter, and powerful enough to work on anything on a car. I have the snap-on 1/2" cordless impact that takes care of lugs and higher torque stuff. If you're porting though...air is the way to go.
glad to be out of OC or what? :)
