13 cfm is over the top for a minimum requirement...what would happen if I only had 8 cfm?

Hi Jeffrey! Thank you for your question. The 3M 26778 Performance Spray Gun needs at least 13 cfm in order to spray properly. Lower cfm, paint may sputter and inconsistent spraying.

My compressor is 5.4 scfm at 90 psi. What would the scfm be at 30 psi after the regulator? Or is that even the right way to think about it?

I can't say what your compressor will make at 30 psi. I have a compressor that makes 14 cfm at 90psi and it was barely able to supply enough air for this gun.
