I was rear ended friday, and long story short, I'm still figuring out what all is messed up. Im thinking the exhaust may be cracked/kinked.

When i hit boost today (i eased into it, didnt floor it) the car didnt feel like it was pulling as strong as it normally does. Then my oil pressure gauge was at 98psi. Is it bad for the oil pressure to be TOO high?

Vtec motors will see 90-100 psi all the time

correct... Plus I rather have high oil presure then low anyday... hell my Cobra was at 100 - 120 psi


so ya you are good....


Also if its high at rev, and then it comes down , like around 10 psi that isnt good either.Just a extra note

Did the crankcase vent come off or get pinched? Are you leaking oil anywhere?

When Honda engines are hot they will have rather low psi at idle, around 10-15psi. Thats normal. And accel psi should go fairly high...98psi does seem a little high though.
