I think our compressor was on for most of the match so the HP cutoff wasn't that important. If you are running a off robot compressor, there is a big difference between 105 & 120 psi in terms of storage. Compressor efficiency is less of an issue if you are running an off board compressor.
Yes if you are running an off board compressor that is a different story but with an on-board compressor having it shut off at 105 is perfectly fine and I would say desirable.
