oil gets really hot and thin
well my temp guage goes up to 3/4 sometimes when i beat on my car and i stop at a light
my oil psi also dips to 5psi im figuring the turbo is really heating the oil so i was thinking of putting an oil cooler but where would get the oil lines from? would a better rad help more? |
Re: oil gets really hot and thin
i don't mean to jack the thread...but does anyone know if putting an oil cooler inline with the turbo feed would act like an oil restrictor at the same time?

Re: oil gets really hot and thin
Do you have any oil flowing problems or such?Ive never really heard of a problem with oil in a honda even when boosted.

Re: oil gets really hot and thin
before the turbo the oil pressure at idle was 15-20 which is normal when warm
now its fucken super thin ill try a heavier oil and see what happens |
