A good search will yield a lot.
Viair, ARB are a couple that come to mind.
If you're interested in "rolling your own" look into some old Cadillac compressors.

100% continous duty????
Thomas from Currie ent (dealer for Thomas) http://www.currieenterprises.com/
or
Oasis Offroad http://www.oasis-off-road.com/
are my votes.
Both will air up a 33 from 12 PSI to 33 PSI in under 2 min. or course that should be with a reservoir. I made a nice reservoir out of black PVC from Home depot. Didn't have to worry about rusting, lightweight, and easy to plumb. It's rated for 1200 PSI so I didn't think 150 would hurt it. I even had a quick disconnect in the back so I could fill up the rears easily. I had it wedged and tie wrapped between the gas tank and rear bumper. cost about $25 and held ( I think I calculated somewhere about 12 gal)

Sorry, I didn't mean extreme air wasn't 100% CD, I was asking a question of whether Bay runner wanted a 100% CD compressor.
I have a Thomas and the thing is bullet proof and has a high CFM. I guess that's why Currie picked them up.
I don't know anything about the extreme air and didn't mean for it to be a dig at it.

Oh, no offense taken. I didn't mean it like that. I read it the same way you just said, I guess my typing sounded otherwise. Sorry.

Just did a little research and found that extreme air is a Thomas compressor!
And much cheaper than what I paid at Currie, that's a good thing.
