so my VG's running triple digits in oil pressure... this is just using gauge in dash, but everything else in dash works, so... no reason to think it doesnt. have been told that maybe jiggling will help, but need to know where it's at...

That looks like the piping route i plan on doing when i turbo my car. Already did the battery delete, just have to get some thicker gauged wire to run to the back. I think i have 4 gauge right now but definitely needs 2 gauge. Ended up puttig another battery back up front cause didn't seem itwas gettig enough power.

VG33ERGazelle?thats why I suggest goin with the vg33er...I dunno how heavy it is, but they start at 222 and 245 hp and tq respectively, according to the factory. with ecu tuning, headers, exhaust, and a smaller pulley for more boost I'm hoping somewhere more around 350ish for horse...no idea where my torque will go

a factory vg33 blower is almost maxed out. putting a smaller pulley would make the charge air way too hot. so unless you plan on doing some crazy intercooler... a smaller pulley wont work to make more power.

What does a factory xterra blower put out boost wise? With an m-62 can probably run about 9 psi before making a bunch of heat. They max out at 12 psi if you get it spinning fast enough but then you will need a way to cool the charge.

Word.

Your oil pressure is probably fine the units get weird all the time.

99% of the time its too much shit on the connector, and not even a real issue with the sensor itself.
