Ive had my gauges fitted today, couple of questions though. The oil temp seams to jump for a moment when i come to a stop. And the boot gauage warning light comes on on hard acceleration. Its boosting at 20psi then backs off to 18psi, why is it doing that !

Second question is what should my pressure and oil temp be !

A normal boost profile will be more psi/bar as it kicks in and tails off higher up into the revs.

Yeh im happy with that but why is the warning light coming on !

Oil pressure should be around 6-7 bar(95ish psi) on cold start, Dropping down to 2-3 bar(30-40psi)at hot idle, Normal cruising around 5.5-6 bar(80-90ish psi)

Oil temp after about 10-15 mins around 85-90 on normal driving.

Does the boost gauge have any buttons or anything to change warning levels, It could just be a matter of it being set too low.
