I wondered about that; as well as my compressor only goes to 800 - 1,000
psi. I wonder how they get the 4,500 psi, bloody BIG compressor I
suppose.
One thing which is a bonus here in Aussie, we don't have to pay for air
(at
the servo) unlike you chaps in the USA. It might cost as much to fill
with
air, using this system it may be you pay for gas in the US. Mind you we
pay
more for the fuel. We have been paying $1.50 ( Aust) a Litre, that's
about
$1.30 US a Litre There's 3.8 Litres to a US Gallons to so that's $4.94
a
gallon.
Are you anywhere near that yet?

Smaller compressor more PSI less CFM, larger compressor more CFM less PSI.

Higher psi might likely come from multiple stages - a larger initial
stage and a smaller final stage...
