    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Really? I've never heard of those amounts for our cars. And I search alot of stiff everyday just to get as much knowledge as I can. Lol well from what I've read, people that shim the oil pump have the same pressure as me for everything. But idk about this drop in pressure under WOT. Pulling...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    So I obviously want to fix/solve the issue, but I'm just wondering for peace if mind. Is it all that bad to rip it when the pressure drops? What does oil pressure go to on a stock non-shimmed oil pump under WOT? I can't suspect anything more than 20 psi, and it's not like there's no pressure...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Damn. It sucks trying to get my oil filter off!! Lol So what supertech isn't good? I read that's one of the better oil filters....? But I guess I'll try it. I'm wanting to change my oil to GC 0w-40 now anyways. I have about 2000 miles on my build so far... I'm just worried that something...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Ok but will a filter cause this? I got a good read on here about supertech filters. I believe j-dub mentioned that somewhere I read.

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Really? What is and why would it go into bypass? By the way, I have a sandwich plate with a bigger external oil cooler if that makes a difference.

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    My mechanical oil guage has a slight leak. Pretty much just has a dab of oil sitting by the fitting. It wouldn't just be leaking out of there more when it builds pressure, thus causing a lower oil pressure reading would it? I mean It goes to just about 40 psi on a cold start up, so I know it...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    Ya the guy who built the motor before me only put about 10k on it before I rebuilt it. And he bought a new factory Toyota oil pump for it, and I reused that. I shimmer the oil pump 4.6 mm. And idk how long it's been doin it to be honest. When I'm in WOT I'm looking at all the other stuff goin...

    oil pressure drops in WOT....?

    ok so i just noticed today that when i put the pedal down and go WOT my oil pressure will drop to about 15-20 psi. Idk why it would do that. Is it something to worry about? I just rebuilt the motor about 2k miles ago. I got the engine already built, then rebuilt it. I was told that it was a...

    Couple issues after dyno runs...

    Ok so I recently got on the dyno to see what I'm running. It was all good onthe dyno and right after, but when I came to my first stop sign my idle stuck at just under 2k.
