Low Oil Pressure after Turbo install
I just installed my new oil pump on my b16a with my new Precision turbo and the oil light is on at idle. My guage looks like it is at like 2psi. What would cause this. There are no leaks any where the I can see. I replaced all the gaskets that go with the oil pump. I have 5w-30 Castrol GTX oil in the motor right now. What do you guys think.

Oh yeah and a jobber oil filter and -4 oil feed line
Im thinking dump the oil for 15w40 and change the oil filter to a HONDA one and go from there. we checked all aroudn the engine not one oil leak.
Another thing i thought the oil is too thin and the restrcitive POS oil filter could be restricting oil flow.
Or the new oil pump is fucked

Re: (ELSpool)
Come on guys, I need some help. I also re did my head and think that the machine shop left out some of the rubber O-rings under the caps that hold down the cams near the cam gears. Would this make a differance?
