I am just looking for opinions on an oil pump question I am having. I am not currently running a turbo but my engine is out and I am preparing to add one perhaps in six months. I'm doing all the prep work now to save hassle later and I am at the oil pump. I purchased a BE oil pump with two washers pushing 72 psi at the pump. I know I can take washer out or add them later but I really am trying to avoid pulling the motor again for final turbo install. Planning on installing a Garrett GT2860 and target 300 hp. Do you think I will run into problems using this setup for six months before I add my turbo setup without some type of oil restrictor or other parasitic drain on the oil system? Thanks for the feedback.

 

No.

 

It will be fine. But it doesn't need any shims.
