I can't take it any longer...

Air is compressable, water is not.

Something designed to move water will be crappy at moving air and vice
versa.

Things designed to move water are designed to be water tight; using
something designed to move air to move water in the best case winds up
as a pile of rust and in the worst case a pile winds up as a pile of
pieces.

Nothing is going to be obtained from spinning an impeller or blade at
2500 RPM, much less 10,000 RPM in water; cavitation will occur long
before that.

If you want water pressure you have two choices: either put you water
in a tank at the top of a tower of the appropriate height or get a
water pump with an appropriately specified flow rate and pressure.
