Stop telling people to search. If you know the answer post it, if not shut up. And i can see you clearly didnt read the rules stickied at the top of this forums saying

"Forced Induction: BACK TO THE BASICS...AGAIN (Everyone Read BEFORE posting)

SEARCH?
Learn to do a search. Many times you can find the answers to redundant questions by just searching. A LOT has been covered. This doesnt mean you need to tell everyone to search if they post up something that has been covered.

DO NOT TELL PEOPLE TO SEARCH. If you think the thread doesnt belong, report it to a mod and we'll deal with it. Remember, there's a ton of archived information, but technology changes as do specific situations. There is often not a definitive answer for many questions in this sport."

I just installed a GReddy Oil Pressure on my 96 GSR...

I get 80+ psi when the engine starts until warm when it falls top about 25-30 @ warm idle. 80ish PSI @ WOT, this is all in Bar so I am doing a rough conversion.

I didnt really pay attention to vacumn on the boost gague, doesnt really matter to me.

I think this is the first time I ever told anyone to search in the FI section! LOL.. I was really trying to be a nice guy about it too.. "" I'll use my discretion based on my experience, if you think I'm so far out of line that i need a speech, you can always complain to a mod. Maybe you can contact the admin as well, and tell him to change the search front colour back to black instead of red.

I installed an oil pressure and boost gauge a couple months ago and found A LOT of great info. much more than what will ever be posted in this thread.

I never said you were far out of line and i didnt give a speech. Its just annoying when everyone says do a search. I know when i am looking for an answer i look at recent threads and everyones like search. I do a search and the replies in the search threads are do a search and i get mad b/c people should just give an answer.

sorry if i took it out on you but some ******* on here just scammed me out of $420 and im pisssed bc theres nothing i can do. maybe i do need a hug.
