Default oil psi

check this out, who can tell me why my oil psi is this high bouncing of 7k rpm?? I called mellens all ready and this is the first he ever encountered this. If ur failliam with me i like pushing the envelope. Or exactly burning it. Don't quote me on it, but im close to 70k miles and over 1kwhp and 25lbs of boost in winter and now i'm turning it up for the summer adding 6 more lbs of boost and 4* of timing. I just bought 5k in tires 345/40/18 mickey thompson DR's before they go up to 1k apiece. I usually go through 2 sets a summer. Hp hurts the pocket that's for sure.


Just wanted to get this out there. Mellen's a i can up with the pasuably answer. Answer or don't

I'm not even going to go to what size my injectors are. Only 85 % for this size $$$. Not worth hearing that impossible This will keep grinder 111 up for the rest of his life trying to figure this out, but i'll tell u he would have a good chance if he would sober up, but u know that's not going to happen.

If there's guess's there no point in telling u guys what it is. Thanks for reading.

C'mon, Helga! We BOTH know your "high quality" oil pressure sensor is junk. At least it didnt show "zero"@7k rpm, in which case you'd need an underwear change, and your interior would smell far too badly for any "new car scent" to chase away! Dont ask me how I know!!

You're wrong!! If I'm going into a bag, I'm in all the way!! To Hell with that halfway stuff!! Reminds me of the time we went snowmobile riding in Michigans Upper Peninsula. We stayed at this little motel that was owned by a guy named Richard Holfstretter. When I went into his Office to pay, I saw a sign I'll never forget. It was routered in a piece of oak. It said, and I'm not kidding:
"BIG DICK'S HALFWAY INN!!!!!!" Yup, I lost it!!

Forgot to bring my kitty with me. But that me n first place 1000hp


Look at this, Grinder lll's **** all the time He thinks he know how to fix his breaks but look where they are at. He blacks out and does not remember what he did the day before . I used to drink back n the days like him so i have empathy for the bustard. Groundhog day everyday.

Different shot od the gear

New oil filter

The roach goes from a to b for work. A Lot of pot holes, mudd and the mobs bodies that the mob tried to hide. being to lazy from the old days when they used concrete.

Heres grinder working on has trans. He dropped the gear on the table and it was rolling toward the edge of the table and his drink was there, yeah u now what he saved.

I swear guys every night i wipe the tears from the f-1x. But every morning there back because it knows the pain its going to receive throughout the day. It reminds me of grinder lll coming to school every morning crying because he know im going to give him a yellow wash in the toilet. Yes that's mascara.

oil looks fine to me, so what, its over full by who knows. Leave it to grinder lll to help. Thats after i ran the engine and i could swear its clearer



Here's the roach. at its finest. Last time exhaust tips were cleaned was about 15yrs when i made grinder lll use his tongue. Oil changes coming soon. Just to lazy catching up on netflix. I dont think im at 25k miles yet so no hurry. Ill be cutting both oil filters to see what surprises are. But i definitely need to keep grinder lll away because if there's gold flakes in it he might think its Goldsleger. and drink it.

Hope u guys and gals got a kick out of it. Yeah even u grinder lll. Even everytime u come over u keeping telling me over and over im ur best then im ur worst enemy, anyway im not in good standing with the neighbor, so i cant have u around tee peeing their houses.
yea that's voka teasing u know who
