I have seen 175 psi regulators on Amazon but have no idea what are considered to be good. When you plumb your compressor make sure that you have a full pressure line hook up. They come in real handy sometimes. My cheap 1/2" gun gets full flow alot for really stubborn bolts. The added psi can also be useful if you ever get a tool that needs a bigger line size than you have. My 1" impact sees some extra psi also since it is feed by 3/8" high flow fittings instead of 1/2". Not ideal but does the trick.
