Cometic sump gasket? Mines the same and I'm having weeping issue aswell. What you do to solve it ?
 
Strange my cometic gasket set was fine.
Mind you I wasn't making oil pressure that long so that may be why lol

I had a lot of issues with oil pumps so it was kind of an inside joke to people that have read the build thread.
Basically I'm saying the pumps failed before I managed to stress the gasket

That's alittle low. ESP driving.
I'm a metric kid so I work the vast majority in that
15psi hot idle is ok, alittle low but mine has run lower than that before now. I take it your on a thin oil like a 30/40?
I run a 50 because I didn't like seeing 12psi on my gauge lol

Driving anything over 4K should be more like 80psi or 5.5bar.
The pressure relief should come in about 80psi and you'll see the gauge jump down afew psi.

Iv only driven round the block so didn't see more then 2500 rpm really.
 
Ah fair enough. That sounds about right then.
 
Started the car this morning was about 2 degrees outside and it struggled to start. Tuned it on and the revs dropped off to nothing and stalled, had to use the throttle to keep the Revs up for a minute then let off and it was ticking over fine.

Any ideas ?

Perhaps but as said the basemaps are rubbish. Stock injectors?

Na injector dynamics 725cc . It's a cpl base map but it's just for running in . So maybe when it goes back to go on the dyno for tuning it will sort the issue
