Assistance Needed: Oil light stays after start for 2 seconds
I turboed the car like a month and a half ago.About 2 weeks ago i changed oil and oil filter.
I first noticed it 2-3 days ago that the oil light stays for like 2 seconds.What could this be im wondering..
My turbo spools 6 psi at like 3k rpm.And im thinking i might overdone a bearing maybe ?

Looks rather normal. It may simply be the oil sending unit delayed a bit because of the additional oil. This may occur if you have your oil feed line attached to the oil sending unit, have an oil cooler attached, or an aftermarket oil sensor.
This doesn't seem to be an issue. If it were longer than what you've shown, I'd be a bit more concerned. But as of now, IMHO I don't see an issue here.

agreed, I don't see an issue, seems normal to me. if you're still worried, try a different filter. I've been finding a lot of filters lately where the anti-drainback valve doesn't work for crap, specifically purolator, all types.
You can do what I do if it bothers you, I have a main relay kill switch in my car and first start up I usually leave in the OFF position and crank the car 7-8 revolutions, THEN flip the switch to ON. Gives it a little time to circulate oil at 40-50RPM (ish) before it has combustion forces on the bearings at 1500RPM. Just my two cents.
