I dont want to put blame on anyone. But it sounds to me like an issue i had a while back. A wasted oil pump pickup o-ring. Mine went out, and those are the symptoms i experienced. I put a new stock pump on when i did my cam/chain swap... didnt replace the o-ring.. thats what happens. Id check there first.

first off, why didnt you go back to the shop that did the work when you first noticed the problem.

second, you should expect things to go wrong when you mod your car, you arent the first. you just made a big deal about it.

third, why did speed inc do your work if you are sponsored by HPA?
