If this question has already been asked then I apologize in advance, but I did a search and didn't find what I was looking for. My question is in regards to after market oil pumps. What I have found out this far is that two options exist. The first option is the High Pressure Oil Pump from Driftmotion. I have been told that high pressure systems are bad on the turbo’s seals. Is there any truth to this and if so is there a way to regulate the pressure going into the turbo? The second option is a low pressure (I.E. factory), high volume oil pump made by a company called Toga that I found on Horsepowerfreaks.com. While this sounds good, the factory pressure on the 7m makes me nervous, especially when these motors have zero tolerance for low pressure conditions. What I really want to know is if anyone here is running either of these setups and whether or not there are any reliability issues?
