Oil pumps

['97-2.3L-ranger]

How much do you think a bigger oil pump could help? turbos have to pull more on a stock ranger pump.

On the pre 95 motor I would say it is a good idea. As of now I do not know of any upgraded pumps available for the 95 and newer motor.

So you say their may not be an aftermarket oil pump? does a turbo pull on the oil pressure? do you thing i should get a digital oil pres gauge?

Turbochargers do not "Pull" oil from anything.

Oil required to lubricate a turbocharger is very minimal.

Stock pump is plenty adequate.

Im using the stock 94 oil pump in my Ranger. No issues thus far.

If anything avoid the High Pressure and find the High Volume pump from Melling I think it is. Same pressure, just more oil.
