Hello everyone, well to start off sorry for the long post, but I have searched but come up with nothing use full. It is a fresh motor, and it is a newly upgraded 57 trim Ct-26. First question is that when the motor was started after it warmed up the oil pressure was at only about 5-6 psi, when I had shimmed the oil pump with 6 washers, at least what I saw was needed on the forum. As far as the oil system it is a larger oil cooler, with a relocated oil filter, and I replaced the oil pump solid line with the SS braided line from driftmotion, and I am using a prosport e-gauge.
My second concern is that when the car is given any throttle, and when released the BOV blows off, and I also hear surging from the turbo. I tried driving the car and it feels heavy with no power, as if when trying to drive in a high gear, and it also sounds as if I had a giant boost leak, but I have also checked all hard pipes as well. I have checked for vacuum leaks, and the gauge also only shows about 7 lbs vacuum at idle. I have a manual prosport gauge that i am using, and as far as the turbo I have a Greddy profec e-01 boost controller. Thanks to all who have read the post, and any input would also be greatly appreciated. Richard
