Flaminsam Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Nope not really. The oil pump is designed to pump oil at a certain pressure with a certain flow. Increasing the distance the oil needs to travel adds resistance before the oil pressure relief valve. You could try to modify the pressure relief valve to give a higher pressure but it could be a loosing battle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
H_D Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Make sure the oil lines and cooler are not mounted too high as up as gravity can also have an effect on pressure - best to mount the cooler lower to the car Quote Link to post Share on other sites
