I just got done installing my Evo III 16g about 40 minutes ago. After the initial test drive (in which I blew an IC Line), I noticed my oil pressure is a bit low. This is usuaing the stock gauge (I don't know how well it works). I didn't see any leaks, but I will deffinitly go over everything again in the morning. Should I be worried about the oil pressure being below the first line ont he stock gauge? I was planning on driving the car tomorrow.
 
our stock oil press. gauge is actually one of the only things that is pretty accurate on our cars. so i'd say it's correct.

are your oil feed/return lines secure? is it leaking? sounds noob, but did you put in the proper amount of motor oil?
 
Everything ran fine, I took it on an hour dirve. Oil pressure is fine now. I do have a small leak somewhere that I need to find.
