oil light problems

I just got my car back running from putting in a twin disc in it. It drove fine for awhile then the next day i was trin to get my boost problems right and when i got done and was pullin down my street the oil light was flashing a little bit never staying on (just flashing when it wanted to it seemed like), and couldnt get over 15lbs either. I checked the oil level and the sending unit and both were good, and going to check the oil pressure tommorrow at work. I let it sit over night and got in it and no light and could hit 25lbs just fine so i drove it around for a couple hours and i got down on it one time and a few minutes later the prob came back (oil light and low boost). Anyone got any ideas? I herd from one person that it could be my stock blow off vavle but im not sure, im kinda stumped.

How is the Oil Light warning of lower pressure in any way related to a BOV?

Sounds like the car is being put into a partial limp mode if it detects low oil pressure, are there any engine codes?
