Hey guys, i finally installed a K03 off an Audi 1.8t that i pick up for next to nothing, got it running, it's producing 5 psi and all is well. I have a needle valve controlling my oil pressure going to the turbo, but i don't know what it should be set at wot or at idle, any help?

Also, would it be safe to shift my motor at high rpm's like 8000? I have read that these small turbos don't like high reving engines, what's you're opinion?

 

between 10-15psi at idle and around 40 at wot. i have heard that those turbo's dont like low boost at high rpm's so cranker up. probably be a little bit more exciting too

 

Just curiouse,what motor are you suing that on?

 

D16Z6, why do you ask?
