I'm sure the 2 bolt main bearing cap setup can handle 450whp.

It's been a while since I've seen on center turbine housing.

You need a bigger turbo!

Blown SC and Justin, What size turbine housings do both you use?

Can pre 2008 Dodge Viper internals be used with a short shaft tranny? Those cars have much greater amounts on torque in N/A and turbo application than the uz family. How many splines do the short shafts have?

That should stay, it's there to keep oil in the motor and not in your catch can.

Take a look at a bone stock RB26DETT, they got super-sized breather tubes and hoses from the factory. 2JZ-GTE on the other hand uses much smaller breather tubes and hoses. The last thing you want is pressure in the crankcase and pressure in the combustion chamber fighting each other.

Yes it's high or the sensor is reading high. Check out my thread for more pressure numbers. http://www.lextreme.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1855&page=8

Nice unit.. love the sd card for datalogging. Having a laptop in the car is a drag!

What's the deal David... where are the specs on the cylinder head?

Looking at those oil pump pictures you posted reminded me to mention that one can use the 2jz oil pump to oil pickup tube gasket. It's rubber impregnated metal style vs paper.

Yes it could be very well sticking, I did not shim it as some do to increase oil pressure. I felt that adding 1 turbocharger would not cause a significant drop in our pressure. One would think that having 110 psi of oil pressure would cause some leaking from the front main seal.

hehehe, yea!

Stock cams non-vvti cams?

I was seeing 85 psi at high rpm warm, but now hitting 110 psi warm at 7000rpm.

John you are correct! The oil pressure sender is aft filter, so it makes even less sense as to why the pressures have spiked up so much. I can't think of any other change I did to the car on the night of oil and filter change that would cause the pressure to get so high. Any ideas?

Changed a 2002 Tundra 4.7 oil filter and the pressures have stayed the same at low rpm but are about 10 psi higher at top rpm. I have a nagging suspicion that it may be the pressure sender. This weekend I'm planning to Tee in a mechanical gauge off the turbo feed to get a second opinion.

Sounds better then a Ferrari ?

It is indeed odd, before oil and filter change, oil pressures were: ~80 at start up when cold ~40 at idle when cold ~20 at idle when warm ~40 at 3K rpm when warm ~80 at 7k rpm when warm When oil gets superhot (extended highway crusing at 4K rpm) I've seen as low as 5psi at idle, but once cools...

I'm defiantly looking to do a oil cooler. I've got a 25 row mocal that should fit in front of the driverside wheel. John, would you send some pictures of your setup, it sound like the cats meow.
