1CFM @ 90PSI requires 1/3HP. This will set you back ~$500 + tax / del. To
get even 175PSI will require a two stage compressor, and AFAIK, none are
available in 12VDC.

I believe the compressor most talked about is the Thomas 405ADC38/12 1/10HP
(.35CFM / 80PSI, 100PSI max) sold by Grainger's (5Z349) for ~$160.
