Originally posted by SVT Driver627: clean, yes, overpriced? duh. has anyone else seemed to notice that what i believe is an oil press. gauge is maxed out in every pic, like they put it in and never connected it, but it still wouldn't be maxed out if it isn't reading anything. It wouldn't suprise me if the car has something fishy goin on.

oooo...your right! good eye, I wonder what happened there, he prolly went cheap on that
My bet is that he is reading oil pressure at the accumulator and when the engine turns off it reads the max pressure at that point (due to the accumulator having a solenoid valve on it. If this was done when the engine was still cold and just after revving it, the accumulator would probably hold the pressure above 100psi (as I have seen over 100psi onmy guage if I hit too high a revs while it's still cold, even 3500rpm's will get you there!)
But this is just my assumption, perhaps after all, the guage is indeed fux0red!
