RB Oil Pressure Regulator Questions....
I just ordered this.....
11810-Oil Pressure Regulator- Street 80 PSI
Is the installation pretty straight forward? I also ordered a new oil pan gasket anything else I am going to need? I also ordered some more gauges (oil pressure, oil temp, water temp, egt) and the adapter oil adapter plate to hook them up. That should be close to all the monitoring I will be needed along with my boost/af gauges already here.
Thanks

Remove old one and replace with new one.  The tricky part is "shimming" the "front OPR" with the supplied pair of washers in the front cover.  I would recommend upping the torque spec by 100% - so around 60 lb-ft; I had mines "fall off" and kill the oil control o-rings (necessitating a tear-down and rebuild) even after torquing the to factory spec!

I will wait till I get it all back running before doing this and Eccentric shaft pellet thing. I still have to wire fuel pump and ignition on my haltech and get IC pipes and a new downpipe made and finish painting the back half interior of the car where the sound deadening was. I wonder if ill ever get this thing done
