How much air do you need scfm wise? The screw type are great, but are built for high air comsumption shops. I would think a good 7.5 - 10hp with an aftercooler that outputs 30ish scfm would be fine. Something that really helps is storage of the air look into getting a 2nd tank and plumb it in line with the compressor so you can double the storage area.
I would check into a local air power shop and see what commercial brands they sell. I like to buy local just for the service aspect.
