b18c oil pressure on track...
What is your oil pressure on track guys? I own a slightly mod B18c and I'm trying to know if my pressure is good...
It seem to be higher on daily drive that on track... On small street and highway, it goes up to 80... when I cruse at 3500 I run 60, at 4000...70... If I floor it, it drop 10 psi before going back to where it was...
On track, it dosen't go higher than 70 and after left hand turn it drop to 40-45... If my oil level is lower than in between the 2 dot on the deep stick I can go as low as 30 psi an then I loose the vtec...

Partial throttle and WOT I believe I'm at 80. On track, try running a 1/4 qt. of oil more than full. Also, you may want to invest in a baffled oil pan.

Yep, stock oilpans and r comps dont mix..
I have custom baffled oil pans available. Similar to the Mugen design.
