What to look for in an Impact Wrench?

My 15 gal. air compressor has the following specs:

SCFM Delivery:
SCFM Delivery At 40 psi 4.9 SCFM
SCFM Delivery At 90 psi 3.5 SCFM

Most impact wrenches I'm looking at consume 4.5 - 6.5 SCFM. Getting a new air compressor is not an option right now. Can I use a 6.5 SCFM impact wrench with my air compressor?
