I can't recall but I think Redondo's oil slinger ate itself apart around 17psi...? I know Soho did a write up where it starts to spit oil out at 18psi. From what I've seen anything over 15psi puts that unit on a yearly rebuild list. Past that the oil slinger cavitates the oil and turns it into a froth not allowing proper cooling since it is self contained. That's when things go bad. (Straight from Vortech).
On your kit, the way you currently have it set up, how close is the Rotrex unit to being maxed out?
