    Help me get to 450 Hp

    sense you're allready running link you could run speed density and that should pick up the slack for you but then it wouldn't be very street-able as speed density is affected by weather alot

    Oil pressure issue

    Now The rule of thumb for oil pressure is 10psi/1000rpm, but my low oil pressure light is coming on at idle 500-750rpm. now if I raise the rpm to 1000 light goes away and I get oil pressure back. Is my pump going out or is that just a very low idle for the car and the crank driven pump juts...
