are you hearing it with the ignition on or the car running? also Idk if you guys did this but you should replace the 7.5amp fuse under the dash(heater blower) with a 10amp. mine just blew and prevented my oil scavanger pump from working.

That's odd. I think PTuning is using a Mocal racing pump rated at 10,000 hours.

yea i talked to toan and he said to change the fuse to a higher one because the pump draws a lil more than the 7.5. I started the car had it running for a couple mins then got in to drive it and saw the oil light on. I hope the turbo is ok im pretty sure the motor is fine since it was just idling for a few minutes and no weird noises but that fuse should get replace

On first start up after installing the kit my pump wasn't working and I had the oil light on. After checking everything I had found the 7.5amp fuse was blown. I just replaced it with the same amperage fuse and since (about 3000km) it has been fine.

my car was fine for 2800miles then blew. I would replace it with a 10amp as a precaution. you have spare ones in the car already or you can buy a few for a couple of dollars. not worth the risk IMO.

Back in January when I first took delivery of my s2000 after Ptuning completed the kit, I took it straight to my paint shop for work to be done. Went to go check on something and when we moved the car, i noticed my oil light was on. I also noticed no heat. I couldn't figure out why. Naturally I called Toan and he said to replace the fuse with a 10amp. I did so, and problem solved. That fuse is connected with the external oil pump along with the heater.
