It's good to 300 psi. Send it.

For sure that guy ended up being full of it, he's using one of those connectors you use for a garden hose to mate the gauge to his tubing -_-

A couple of the local guys have beaten the piss out of their engines with no oil cooler and are still running strong. I think engine longevity is mostly a numbers game with respect to build quality and manufacturing tolerances.

I suggest getting the pressure gauge first so you can watch it and make informed choices. For instance, you will notice how high the pressure is when it's cold. It's a struggle for me to keep it under 120 PSI for the first few minutes. 140 PSI is where it bypasses to protect gasket and o-ring seals, and the pump. Keep that in mind as you play with viscosity.
@Dezoris also known as savagegeese on youtube had the best post for oil pressures if your curious with them compared to viscosity he used:

He was in the first large group of people to be doing extensive testing to his car for track use and vortech supercharging, it's worth the read and video watch.

Yeah, I've been through all of the early stuff. None of those guys controlled temperature with any rigor. That's why I built my custom setup.

Those are very good points and will be taken seriously. My car is a '14 with a 1/14 build so I'm wondering if anything changed between the first '13 builds and mine. I didn't give it a lot of thought before buying, so now I better find out what I have and if, for instance, oiling mods and a tune are in order.
