On the other hand, a bit off topic: I'm trying to decide on an oil pressure gauge. The stock says im to get 60-70 at 3000rpm on n/a ka. Can i figure out the highest it'll go? tryin to decide should i go with 0-100 or 0-150psi?

edit2: the aftermarket bovs have the screw to adjust the pressure they open up at right? I was looking at 1g dsm bov, but couldnt' find one.... how do i go about it, and any clue what it's set at initially?

The 0-100 will be fine. &nbsp;IIRC, there is a bypass on the oil pump that never allows it to go above ~80 psi. &nbsp;So 100 psi will be perfecto.

Yes, almost all aftermarket BOVs have adjustment screws...I think there is some lame Greddy one that doesn't...don't buy one that doesn't.

On a 1g DSM BOV, you have to put the dang thing in a vise and crush it to get it to hold a certain psi. &nbsp;IMO, it makes a lot more sense to just spend a Benjamin and buy a used *real* BOV before you get some jenky DSM one. &nbsp;But that's me. &nbsp;And I have that Blitz. &nbsp;So I'm biased.

Jeff, I think we should change the title of this before we archive it. &nbsp;Perhaps something like "BOVs and other turbo queries" or something. &nbsp;Since we basically talked about EVERYTHING.
