Oil Pressure??
I have a 94 Civic hatch with a type R block and a GSR Head... she is boosted with a greddy turbo off of a bseries kit from greddy with a changed flange to fit a t3 flange on my ss mani. the oil feed line is a -6an t'ed from the oil pressure sending unit, and the return line is a 5/8th steel braded line...
What should the oil pressure on this set up be???

Re: Oil Pressure?? (Vtec5500)
on my 3an I max at 75psi and sustain around 62-64 at 4k rpms at 80mph. I would have no clue as to what a 6an would be like, I wonder if the oil pump would flow enough for that line to make what mine does?
Anyone care to shine in?

I think the line is too thick. You're most likely loosing alot of pressure by running that big of a line for oil feed.
