I just have a really quick question... I tried searching but couldnt finda nything?

What should the oil pressure be and how much does it change under certain conditions? thanks

 

Depends on the gauge. Stock gauge (for me) reads 0 at idle. With the Defi, it reads a hair above 2 kg. AT WOT, it skyrockets to ~8 on the defi...and slightly below 8 on the stock gauge.

 

what does that comne out to in pounds?

 

Dont worry about that stock gauge reading if that is your concern. That system is way flakey. You shouldn't be overly concerned with oil pressure at idle. Most the time it is at 30psi. But anything higher than 15 should be safe (at Idle). Above Idle you should be between 25 and 60 normal driving. High rpms 60 and 90 and thats about it. Dont freat that stock setup. 80% of the people I have talked to says theirs is irratic and inaccurate. (my is too)

 

Appx. 29 lbs. at idle and 116 at WOT.

 

ok, thanks guys

 

If your stock gauge works (mine works pretty well), you will see about 30 psi at idle. It will rise to 60 psi at 3000 rpm and will go to about 1120 psi at high rpms. My numbers seem to correlate with jspecracer7's pretty well.
