I want to run ABS or PVC from an air compressor about 65 feet from a garage to the other side of my house. I plan on keeping the pressure under 120psi. Is it possible and which would work better ABS or PVC.

According to this chart it should be OK with PVC PVC Pipes - Pressure Ratings Each connection will be a weak point unless you do a perfect job of welding and allow to cure 2 hours. I would consider PEX, easy to run and it can be all one piece
Depending on the pipe size, pressure ratings vary but 3/4 Schedule 40 is rated over 200 PSIG working pressure. I don't see ABS in the Atlanta area. I would try and find Schedule 80 pipe to be safe.
