H22 turbo high oil pressure
I know there are a tons of thread about this issue but I havent found an answer.
The engine is a fully built H22, the turbo has a restritor.
The oil is ok when driving on normal condition:
80psi at cold start
around 20psi when warm at idle.
Goes to around 80psi at 5k to 6k rpm (no load)
but on the dyno it went pass 100 psi on 9 psi of boost.
That scared me a bid. I only want to know if it could cause to the engine or any component to fail or ware prematuraly.
I'm not sure of the oil grade... we were supose to put motul 300V but they were out of stock so we put in Total.
Thanks.

idk but im curious to know also I just put my new build in today and its getting dynoed next week I know i will have higher oil pressure than normal due to the fact i got a balance shaft removel kit in it
your oil pressure is fine..
at idel its supposed to be at like 10 to 20
then goes up by 10psi every 1000 rpms. too much oil pressure shouldnt hurt anyways
and if u Just built your engine do NOT run sythetic.. i highly recommenr Valvolive VR1 it contains zincronium witch is very good for break ins

your oil pressure is exactly like mine. I dont run oil squirters or balancer shafts.
80 psi cold start, ~20psi at operating temps
90 or so psi peak under load.
NA h23vtec

i bought the motor i have already built, it was just blown up i went thru the entire motor replacing bearings pistons etc, not really knowing entirely about the balance shaft install procedure, Benson built and sleeved it from the get go so i wouldnt think they did it wrong.. i never checked those ports when i built it, i know what they are now, but if 1 was out i would have a hard time believing it would get any pressure at all there pretty big and it has almost perfect pressure everywhere else.
It idles around 850-900rpm
reguardless i have a set of prodrive gears to install and will be checking this out further come winter time
