OMP pressure and high boost

Hey all
so i been reading the thread about OMP Declassified and alot of it goes on about the flow rate and the internals and the injector of the setup
i was wonder at what level of boost if any would over power and push the oil backwards??
im rebuild my car atm and wanted to keep the OMP and use a RA Oil Metering Pump Adapter to inject a clean oil into the housing

Cheers

no amount of boost will overpower the OMP and push it backwords, if anything, more boost would pull MORE oil because of the extra vacuum being made in the engine

least thats how I see it

It's proven a bit difficult to find info on when the OMP injects oil during the engine cycle. I guess this must happen sometime during the cycle when there is no compression? (as in the space between the rotor and housing is opening up?)
