But at least we would get higher pressure at high rpms.
Actually we can't take the min.10PSI/1000rpm (90PSI 9000rpm) rule without the rear regulator mod. Maybe this is the problem.
I don't think that the bearing wear comes into being at low rpms. But who knows?

Paul,
do you agree with me that the 3rd oil nozzle and water cooling parts could be read like:
premix and take care of your cooling system (like with a better water pump\ a real open front grille, a better rad and what else comes to mind) and your s1 engine will last a lot longer?
Add these oil pressure\viscosity threads and we should be sleeping better!

Paul,
I understand there are also some very good (well regarded) Australian Made (I think) Apex Seals for competition and domestic use, sorry can't recall the name (had the link somewhere), they are ridiculously expensive...but the "Best" ..apparently..
Have you heard of Australian made Apex Seals?

Water pump, thermostat, fan control, pre-mix and proper viscosity with good maintenance are the biggest. Making sure one has a proper battery and correct flash to reduce flooding to about impossible is smart as well. We'll have to do a thread eventually to cover reductiopn of carbon buildup.

Since i often see high revs for extended periods of time i will try, as you know, a higher-set pressure regulator.
Insights?

Glad you accepted my suggestion dear friend!
Please include me as one of your 1st customers. We could actually do a diy install and video and post results after the install on my car--beta tester if you will?
Also if the oil pan baffles (in the 09 oil pan) can be obtained at a resonable cost I would like that.

It justifies my first and old thought about the bearing wear (and maybe it is relating to other problems), that our max. oil pressure is not enough.
Paul, I think now you have real life oil pressure data from the S2.

Just more information on the stupid e-shaft pellet.
Yesterday was 54F degree ouside temp here.
Cold start, warming, then rolling. When the instrument panel's water temp gauge got the hot position (about 8 mins), then I have to wait four more long minutes to reach the 122F oil temp (sandwich plate sender).
The oil pressure was only 30-32PSI at 2000 rpm, with the way too thick 122F temp oil.
....And it is almost the same until 140F oil temp. When the oil reaches this temp (bypass closing), the pressure is doubling (65PSI) at the same rpm.

I can't seem to make sense of your results, ayrton. It doesn't make sense that your OP would double when the cooler bypass is closing. Since you're measuring at the sandwich plate (after the cooler, right?) I would have to imagine that the pressure would go down a bit, since it would lose some through the cooler. Not only that, but your oil should be thinner as well. Do you potentially have a faulty gauge?
olddragger, I didn't realize cold oil pressure is that high at such a low rpm, so some of it is probably getting by-passed. I would definitely try to increase the bypass pressure of the rear valve, then.

You can see my single cooler thread for updates and details in the days to come but having a single cooler does increase oil pressure. But I'm not driving to some cosmetic change that need to be made but it is running great.
