was curious what your oil pressure is at cold start, warm idle, and where is it when your vtec hits? in an h22a1. I just put my guage in where the cigarette lighter was, it looks tight! Windering what common numbers where! thanx

 

cold start: 50psi
warm idle: ~15psi
VTEC: ~75psi

These are off memory for me so they may be off by a little.

 

start: 50 psi
idle: 15 psi
vtec: 65 psi

 

the only requirements stated by honda are 11psi minimum at idle, at 50psi minimum at 3,000 RPM.

 

and 60 psi for VTEC

 

h23..
cold 90psi
idle 15psi
interstate steady driving at 4000rpm 45ish

Do you have a pic of how it looks? Just wondering, I would like to see it

 

 

ill try to get one up soon, but it looks a lot better than the ***-tray place! Saving that space for vafc!

Hot Idle 18 psi
