Potentially sounds like the gallery gaskets are leaking and causing low oil pressure.

Would explain why it appears when the car is hot as the oil thins out a bit. I'd do an oil pressure test.

I'm tuned on e85 with ecutek and I didn't need to remove the tune when I got smogged a few weeks ago. All I had to do was put the stock cats back on for the visual.

Some of them burn oil, I've had 2 cars with the VHR and one of them burns oil and the other one didn't at all. Both were 2011. Seems like it's from excessive blow by cause there's a decent amount of...

Your oil pressures seem good. Spec is 14psi at idle and 42psi at 2k RPMS @ 80c.

From his old thread he mentioned he didn't use the starter at all, no?

He left it in gear and tried to manually loosen the crank pulley bolt with a breaker bar.

What am I missing?

This engine doesn't have pushrods or anything of that nature. The camshaft pushes on a shimmed cam bucket that sits on top of the valve/valve spring.

I agree with nis350, check for exhaust leaks.
