Oil overfill issues?
I know the manual says 5.1 qt but now that I have boost which means feed lines, the tablespoon of oil in the turbo, (what is a the oil capacity of your average turbo?) and lines to my relocated filter.
I ended up putting 6 qt in to try and adjust for a greater oil capacity but found it to be a bit overfilled. (wish I could go back in time and try 5.5 qt) Should I expect any issues because of this or can i go out tomorrow and push my engine...

Drain a bit off to be safe. Overfilling could put a bit of extra pressure on gaskets and seals and cause them to leak. Otherwise, it may just burn off and head into the exhaust, perhaps if you have a weak PCV into your intake manifold. I would just drain a bit off to be safe.
I ran it hard last night and no noticable issues, I did a cold oil check and it seams to be riding right above the "H" on the stick.
I have a question, will the Oil Pressure light come on in high as well as low pressure situations?
