oil pressure after turbo

[6wdcummins83]

Just got my turbo on and everything is running now, to those who have put a turbo on a nhc 250 what oil pressure should i be having at idle and while driving? cold i had about 60 and driving it came up to about 80 psi. is that high? no fuel mods yet and pictures are coming but its dark now i just took it for the test drive (about a mile down the road)

I turboed mine. Didn't change the oil pressure at all. Mine is about 90 cold and about 65-75 warm. But it Montana our colds Are 10 to -0. If the turbo changed your oil pressure a lot check your oil lines to turbo.

That is normal pressure. Adding a turbo doesn't change oil pressure. You plumbed the turbo supply from the FILTERED side, correct?

Drove mine 70 miles today and cold it was around 65psi and 30-35psi at 180 degrees while idling.

Turbo,,,,,, Im sure it woke the ole girl up some.... Dont mind the oil pressure,,, its fine. Cummins tend to run a higher pressure than most, and way higher than civy cars/pickups.
