The Superchips Programmer makes a copy of the stock tuning and stores it on the unit so you can install the performance tuning. When you want to change back, it takes the stock tuning and re-loads it to the computer.

A couple of things ahve happened here. Either heat got to the oil lines and/or the oil rings & connections, The tech did not do a proper repair to the first issue, the pressure relief valve is stuck or letting too much pressure pass through the system, and/or you have a bad oil filter.
Change the oil & filter and then take a oil pressure test to see what the oil pressure is at idle and at higher rpm's. Then you can find out if it's an internal issue or poor repair job.
My two cents................[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] good luck with it

Did someone say hydro???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img] LOL!
I got to do some scuba in Jamaica. That was pretty sweet. Only went one day, but hey it was grand. I dunno if I could scuba again. My dam ears are messed up. When I get below water to deep, the pressure feels like its gunna blow my brains out of my ears. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img]
