For those that are using the VTEC pressure port
After reading a couple threads about people doing this I decided to move my oil pressure sensor to that port and monitor what kind of pressure it actually has.
When I first fired the car up it had between 3.5-4 psi of oil pressure. By the time it was fully warmed up it was down to 1.5-2 psi of pressure. This was at idle, saw no reason to test any further.
Verdict.....DONT USE THIS PORT TO FEED OIL TO YOUR TURBO OR ANYTHING FOR THAT MATTER!!!!

Mentioned this in another thread about how it steals oil from the valve train as well and I got slaughtered. There's a huge loss of pressure from the block to the head.
