    Increasing oil pressure

    I was reading on the metric mechanic site about how higher performance engines should have a little more oil pressure...so they work some magic and get another 8 PSI out of it or something...(m20) any idea how we could do that?

            Talk to Sly, There is a trick that can be done to the Oil pressure Relief valve that will increase the pressure. You can buy a Stronger Spring From Metric Mechanic and install it, which will Increase the Oil pressure.
