do subies eat oil pumps at all? im not very clued up on boxer tech,
Subaru Oil pumps are pretty solid. They also move a LOT of oil. With 5w-30, oil pressures over 100psi are the norm on the EJ engines, especially 07+. The 07+ oil pumps are common upgrades.

I don't know what the FA engine is like, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's also over 100psi at full song.
