90 psi measured from where, at what rpm, and at what engine temperature?

 

engine temperature is Half..........i am asking u for the RPM ...I forget to rite it on the last post. explain me in details .When the car is warm up it shows 90 psi. but dont know at wat rpm.......my question is wat is the stock oil pressure of an 96 prelude...thanks

well thats the thing, oil presure is rpm dependent, if you could tell me what rpm you hae 90psi of oil presure then i can tell you if its a good or bad thing,

and do not go by the stock temprature gauge, what you should do is let the car run until the radiator fans kick on once, and then take your oil presure reading.

 

hi sup man yeah u r rite but i want to know the stock oil pressure of 96 prelude........is so hard to look at the rpm when i pull it over i pull it over many times my fan gets on when i pull it over very much...........so tom i wanna know the stock oil pressure of prelude just tell me that...........i hav it dohc vtec si and many mods.i am thinking to beat evo 8 can I???ok thanks

 

its at idel and the oil pressure is at 90 psi . i think its at 1000 rpm .yeah its at warm condition .
wht should br stock oil pressure at 1000 rpm in warm condition . my prelude is superslow i lost with CRX with b16 .

 

ok well oil presure at idle if you have 10w-30 for oil and are runing a normal oil filter , and the car is warmed up indicated by the fans turning on.

for my car which is also a vtec i have about 10-15psi at idle and maybe 60-70 psi when approching redline

i would only ever see a 90 psi spike if i was reving my car when it was just started, with the oil cold

 

well tht was the almost same As i execepted . next why is my car not fast As i loseing from b16 with mods he is at 170 ATW .

 

well 170 at the wheels is alittle less than whati would expect from the stock vtec prelude, so if he is tuned and has many mods, then its just a fact, your in a heavy *** prelude, and he is in a light civic hatch with 170 wheel horse

to be sure thought, i would take your car to a dyno that also offers wideband, and get a couple of dyno pulls with wideband readings..

also do you have any check engine lights?

 

well dont have any engine light. but i am asking that why my car is slower than the other ludes. the stock power of lude is 190 hp and why i am getting beated by an crx with 170 atw. WHy is my car not faster than the other ludes or why isnt it a competition.i think i have my prelude like 70 to 60 hp less and it should be more

 

do they have dynomometers in pakistan? maybe you should dyno it and see if it is down on power.

 

Here's a phrase I want you to look up:

Power to Weight Ratio

 

yes we do have dyno machines but it is in peshawar i live very far from that my car is not giving the real performance that a prelude gives i hav and 5zigen orignal exhaust cat back system and intake and turbo kit Garrett bb turbo c 25 and intake and more

 

no man its not the weight ratio thing he is damn 170ATW and giving me lead like about for 3 or 4 cars.......and a h22 stock can give b16 stock about like 4 or 5 cars lead.....thanks

sounds like you've got some tuning issues.

a stock h22 prelude is about 165 at the wheels as i said, and your friend has 170atw , now the difference is the weight, your prelude is heavy

you sould check to make sure your check engine light bulb is not burnt out, it should come on for a second when you first turn the ignition on

 

ok tom i will check the engine light bulb but also why my car is slower than a stock prelude 96 same engine h22.........my injin's gotta problem .....i don get it'

 

if you're reading 90 psi at idle sounds like you have some serious blow-by issues and that would definitely cause your car to be slow
