Options for oil pressure boost?
Looking for options to boost oil pressure to a range of 50~90psi for journal bearings on a turbo. This is on a horizontal honda style 200cc motor...this is the last step til completion but its proving the most difficult. I have considered an electric oil pump but the only ones I can find are the very large ones found on cars. I need something small with the least amount of amperage draw possible.
None of the bearings on this engine are supplied oil pressure. Only the head and cylinder walls are supplied pressure. Every bearing in the engine is Ball bearing.

Is it Absolutely necessary to boost your oil pressure? If you do then think about tightening the allowed clearance on the engine bearings and reset the by-pass pressure on the oil system.
