Just wondering whats everyone oil pressure like.

My B18 Dart, ITR oil pump, 10W30 oil, idle 700-800 RPM warmed up is around 15psi ? To me that seems pretty low. What do you guys think.

My cousin on the other hand, has a toga oil pump, B18C5, 10W30 oil, idle 800-900 RPM warmed up is 35psi-40psi.

Is mine normal?

 

sounds low what does it do when you rev the motor up?

 

My car idles cold at 75/80lbs. Once its up to temperature it will idle at 60/65 and in the upper rpm range it will be 100/110.

 

10w30 oil, idles around 30psi

 

10w30, 30psi when warmed up in my B18

My boosted D16 I had in one of my crx's had ~13psi idling warm almost like yours and it didn't make it through break in ....Vitara Z6 motor R.I.P.

 

I get about 30psi once warm and at idle and almost 100psi at WOT

 

Any damage to the oil pan? Don't wanna say this but check the bearings. Who built it for you?

 

15psi with 10w30 hot is about normal at 800 rpm.

You guys can't compare 800rpm oil pressure to a race car idle oil pressure (1200+).

Mine's about 35psi hot at 1150rpm and 20w50.

 

most cars are ~15 at 800-1000rpm idle w/10w30.

 

Sweet, if there's one guys opinion I trust the most on H-T its tony :D

BTW "Antilag" other than making me want to cry (till i saw tony post), lol. Why do you think 15psi is too low, and need to check bearings. Problems with other engines ??

 

Tony what brand oil do you run?
