you mean you need more flow? higher than stock oil pressure is not nessesarily a good thing..

but higher pressure (within limits) can be achieved by shiming the release valve on the stock oil pump, or replacing the stock spring with a stiffer one.

for more flow you will need a uprated/high flow oil pump, if there is even one avaid for the engine you are looking at.

the standard oilpump its 6 times more effektive then it need to be if you look on flow,and it have good pressure and if you need more then 7bar on top rpm then do a small shims that is 0.10mm //Mojje
