There's something wrong with the Viair spec sheet you used.
The Viair itself carries a label stating:
"Flow Rate @ 0 psi (13.8 volts): 0.88CFM"
The spec sheets of the two devices also do not appear to be comparable, because different criteria were used in the measurements, e.g., the VIair measurement is based on 13.8 volts, while the Thomas is based on 12v.
Somewhere around I have timed compression tests we ran with both the older Thomas model compressor vs. the VIair 90. I'll see if I can dig them up and post them.
