The old impact I have no idea and nothing to tell me. I will have to look at the box on the new one when I get home from work tonite. I just know something happened on the air supply side, as my old impact just started acting up. And then the new one acted the same way (but with more initial "ummph" cuz it's a way better gun. This is not the normal pressure bleed down until it drops low enough to trip the motor back on. This is an initial full pressure shot for a second and then it drops waaay down to where you can hold the trigger on puttputt for a minute or more before it will even bleed off enough to trip motor... I'm pretty mechanically experienced - but this thing has me kinda baffled. I will post the cfm tonite on the new impact.

The CFM on the impact is 5.0 @ 90psi. This compressor does 6.5 @ 90 so I should be good? ?

Yep, you should be good.

It's most likely the Regulator, then; a rebuild kit is probably the way to go. My rep said that some debris may be in the regulator manifold/hose, causing this.

Hope this helps, let me know if there's anything else I can do.
