My buddy gave me his 93 Talon TSi AWD. He had a 91 remaned engine put in with a 93 p&p head. He had nothing but problems with the engine, but now it burned up the head and cams. So I put another 93 head on it and hooked up a mechanical gauge in a the oil pressure sensor port. I had great pressure. So I hood up the gauge to a port right next to the turbo feed at the head and had no pressure what so ever. The engine valve train is loud. Would I get a bad read from that port in the head? Any ideas about my oil pressure problem throw them out there I would like to hear it. Thanks:hellyeah:
 
Are you using aftermaket head studs? I had the same problem with a 1g block 2g head. the oil feed to the head travels thru the stud or bolt if they are to thick they will block oil to the head.
