Is that still a good rule of thumb? At 6K I've got 45psi, don't recall it being that low before  Huh

If an American is to amount to anything he must rely upon himself, and not upon the State; he must take pride in his work, instead of sitting idle to envy the luck of others. He must face life with resolute courage, win victory if he can, and accept defeat if he must, without seeking to place on his fellow man a responsibility which isn't theirs-TR

That's pretty low for 6K rpm. What pressure do you have at idle?

That's good idle pressure. What kind of gauge are you using?

Yeah, I wasn't too concerned about idle, when I saw it at 45 at the top of seconid while doing a datalog it kind of alarmed me. My machine shop guys says it's not an issue so I'm not worried, I'm going to drive it until it pops. BTW it's an Autometer gage.

I wouldn't sweat it too much.......if it's not a high HP application.

Fix it til it's broke, or fast, not in any certain order.
