shaneomac1602 Posted February 8, 2010 Share Posted February 8, 2010 I installed my pro sport blue tinted boost gauge, works great. I installed my pro sport blue tinted oil pressure gauge, electronicallyit works perfect, but it was always pegged max pressure. I think I have the sending unit mounted too far away. Any suggestions where to mount it? Where do you guys have yours? I'm also thinking of installing a wide band O2 sensor. Which one do all of you suggest to match my prosports while still working good. I have my other 2 in a cubby pod, where should I mount the O2? Not sure if I like A pillar pods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaneomac1602 Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 i really like that write up. definitally going to do that. is there any distance from the oil galley that is considered too far away? far enougha away to effect the oil pressure? also, what is the avaerage oil pressure being ran in 05 lgt's?

TSiWRX Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 ...is there any distance from the oil galley that is considered too far away? far enougha away to effect the oil pressure? I honestly don't know. That question is beyond the scope of my shallow knowledge, I'm afraid. also, what is the avaerage oil pressure being ran in 05 lgt's? There's a couple of posts in that thread which describes the pressure ranges. Typically, a cold-start can well see you north of 80 PSI. Warmed, at-idle, you will see somewhere between 20 to 30 PSI. Cruising (say, 5th gear, at 55 MPH), you should see somewhere around 80 PSI. Search around a bit, and you'll see that this is what the generalized figures are. The specs call for, at operating temperature of 176 degrees F.: 600 rpm = 98 kPa/14 psi 5,000 rpm = 294 kPa/43 psi But that's the absolute minimum. The idiot light won't kick on until a shockingly low ~2 PSI. <-- I love Winky, my "periwinkle" (ABP) LGT! - Allen / Usual Suspect "DumboRAT" / One of the Three Stooges '16 Outback, '16 WRX, 7th Subaru Family Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
