As for the oil pressure, what weight oil are you running? Same to you redline. I've run 5W-30, 10W30, and 15W30 and my oil pressure has never changed...

and yo Jet, realx man, no need to see you and turran take "jabs" at each other... its pointless... I think we are all away for your problems but i have rearly seen any trouble with turbonetics kit at all, but here on the forums, specially since you are pretty known, when someone post something everybody seems to jump on things really quick and make conclusions real fast, so its fair what turrans said. You got the turbo at turbonetics and they are looking at it and we are all here trying to help you, even with my limited knowledge i am trowing ideas and hopin for the best for you man, no need to get mad and start the bashing game, when tons of other users have had no problems with this kit at all, cuase you know how this forums work...they are a bunch of sheeps here, they jsut follow.

Mia, just for some more info. When I start my car my oil pressure is 100-120. After it warms up wot 60-70 psi at idle 15-20 psi. I run 10/40 now and ran 5/30 before FI with the same results. These readings are from the stock gauge non rev motor.

I see...well I don't really know what it could be honestly. Like I said this is the first time i hear of it. I guess i'll have to crawl under the car and see what potential reasons there are...
