My oil pressure is like 10psi at idle. The pressure line is teed from the oil sender line. I have a H224. I'm pretty sure that it too low. I have a tiny oil leak coming from my oil pan but I don't that is the reason for the low pressure. What else could be wrong?

 

if you are measuring after the T and at the end of a -3AN line, it will be about 10psi at idle. otherwise, need to check before the T at the stock oil sender location or check there is no small plug in the line,

 

i have about 15psi after hard runs
20psi usually

on a built single cam....

i think your fine, as long as the pressure increases as you drive and doesnt drop to 10psi when your at like 6 grand then your ok....

It's scaring me because it me feel like my turbo isn't getting enough oil.

 

it should be about 60psi at cold idle and around 10psi at warm idle. Your fine.

 

dominate9,

mind telling me where you got that avatar?

 

turbos usually only run on like 7 psi pressure...i have been told that anymore can mess with the oil seals...
