Nothing changed. Havent had a chance to record oil temp vs PSI.

-I found a really nice shop near by who is going to check it out for me tomorrow if its good then getting a tune if not then repair .

so what became of this?

Basically the guy out in cali did a call on what was wrong. The place near me said it was my sensor. So i replaced that. PSI is now 15 idle 40-45 highway and 90 red line. Now i can start my tuning and build.
