Little more money but the CFM goes up to 2300. Should be able to do the necessary mods to give it a 6" outlet.
I bought one of these machines rebadged as a Rexon, big mistake. It lasted 14 months before it delaminated the windings. I now own a PM 75 3hp and it outsucks that fake 3 hp any day. Even on 4" flexi over 20 feet it is great. Soon I am modifying the machines to 6" and will run ducting the same. I would LOVE to run the 8" but imagine fitting prices.

PM75 is a Powermatic Dusty, you pay for what you get. $1000 great quality, great reputation. If you haven't heard of Powermatic maybe more research should be done. They come from the same plants as Jet but with better specs and quality.
