Thanks.

Looking at the compressor map of the 8555 it shows a max CFM of 953 CFM or 27 m(3)/Min. However, it doesn't show under what conditions this is tested so it's hard to compare to any of the others. If conditions are similar it's about 10% under the peak CFM numbers of the V3Si and C38-91.
Spun to around 100,000 rpm it should deliver improved top end power over the smaller 8550 and even more midrange torque.
That's if you can get hold of these blowers!
