oil pressure gauge on turbo feed line ??
 

hell everybody.
if i will place the oil press sending unit on the turbo feed line closer to the engine. will i get a accurate engine oil pressure?

thanx.

Yes

gotch.... thanks.

What's the optimum oil pressure the turbo should see? I was planning on putting a needle valve in and lowering the pressure to about 60 psi. (inline to turbine, not engine oil pressure of course)

Re: oil pressure gauge on turbo feed line ??
 

turbos are happy with about 30-35 psi of oil pressure.

coolness.

So why don't people run oil line restrictors. Sometimes peoples oil pressure is at 90 psi.

Re: oil pressure gauge on turbo feed line ??
 

i always run one

Re: oil pressure gauge on turbo feed line ??
 

whats an oil like restrictor?never heard of one....

Re: oil pressure gauge on turbo feed line ??
 

a needle or ball valve you run inline to your turbo to lower the oil pressure to 35-45 psi so you dont' blow the turbo seals.

Hondas have high oil pressure...especially VTEC ones

oh ok cool
