Default LS1 pan. (increasing oil bypass pressure)

Is there anyway to increase the pressure required to activate the oil filter bypass? I run higher than stock pressures and I "T" off the oil filter housing port to feed my turbo. I run JY engines pretty hard so I frequently get small amount of metal when I split and check my filters.

When I took the turbo apart I'm finding metal in the bearing section as well. I was under the impression this was filtered oil, but apparently it's not "filtered" enough. Also wondering how much metal I'm bypassing into my main/rod bearings as well.


Thanks
