I'm not sure what the Tsunami is, but here is a link to a comparison Tire Inflator Comparison

I have the MV-50 and just mounted it under the hood. It's been working great so far.

I just ordered th MV50 from Amazon a couple of weeks ago for $62.04. Haven't even taken it out of the box, so I'm anxious to see how fast it works. Will post up when it try it out.

i have one of the mv50's, its actually really good, it does get hot though. I paired it with a 5 gallon air tank from harbour freight... i really like the set up works great, I have not had to use it long enough to see what the duty cycle is... gets all my tires done... I got mine off of ebay for about $35.

just found out the superflow MV50 and the masterflow tsunami MF1050(sold at pep boys) is the exact same air compressor

I believe they are the same. Just change of ownership.

No problem. They also have a good comparison for Deflators Tire Deflator Comparison: Everything you wanted to know about airing down and more!!
I have the Staun deflators and very happy with them.

A while ago I got the MV-50 at Kragen on sale for 25.00. I was going to get two, but they were gone. That was before it was popular, it was just some cheap china ripoff then....then someone compared it to a ARB compressor and it blew the 400.00 compressor away.

Nice to know it's a good one! I love mine...it sit in it's bag in the back for now, but soon I will mount it, I think.

And yes, it get nuclear hot.

EDIT: Yup, the price is right on that site, and the comparo was this I think:

Comparison: Superflow to Viair Compressors
