My filter had some restricion in it, it's a fairly small filter and the element was covered. Going to use a standard oil filter via a remote oil filter kit.

Haven't consiidered an electric pump, no... 10-30W oil. Dino for now as I'm under 1k miles.
im 99% sure this is on a r block.

you sure your oil pump is good?

I'm running a new 22RTE oil pump. I have a digital oil pressure gauge with a sender attached to the block.
30psi idle. 78psi at RPM.

The block is 22RTE, so it uses the factory turbo oil feed.

im thinking tee off of the stock sending port?

i think the r blocks have a 1/8 npt hole plugged for oil also in front of the filter, between 1&2

dont quote me though

The 22R / 22RE both have plugs on the passenger side. T'in off the factory sender is another way to go also - just remember that it's BSP thread.

The 22RTE has a oil feed port installed on the drivers side.

Maybe the internal oil pass that feeds the turbine side bearing is plugged with coked oil. As a result, bearing gets few ot no oil and burns quickly. This problem is not obvious even when you have the chra apart in your hands.

oh, and why don't you watercool that CHRA?
