PLEASE POST YOUR OIL GAUGE READINGS, I KNOW ALL GAUGES READ A LITTLE DIFFERENT MECHANICAL VERSES ELECTRIC GAUGES. WHAT DOES YOUR OIL PRESSURE AT IDLE WARM, COLD AND WHAT IS IT AT DRIVING .JUST CURIOUS ABOUT OILING SYSTEM SHARING TURBO AS COOLING AND IF ANYONE USES OIL COOLERS SINCE OIL IS ONLY THING COOLING KA TURBO.

ALL INPUT APPRECIATED FOR SURVEY THANKS
