    What Oil?

    What oil are you boosted guys running? I'm running 20w-50 and once the oil temp rises my pressure drops alot. So what do you guys run?

          That's what oil does. It thins out as it heats up.

                      I know this, but my gauge says i have 25psi at ~4000 rpm. I figured it should be closer to 40 or 50. I switched to 5w50 and had the same result. I think my sender is bad cause my oil level is spot on and the engine temp is perfect
