If you don't put a header in front of it's hard to justify. Once you go catless header it makes total sense tho.
Oil pressure in my ride varies relative to temp and it will vary more as you use different oil cooler setups. Adding the robispec oil water cooler was awesome for me in my climate, hotter the oil lower the off track idle pressure so keep an eye on that, don't shut down just after a hot lap.
Fwiw near 100 psi on cold startup presented some challenge for my oil fed setup but thanks to Jeff Perrin and the in line restrictor he sent me it's fine now.

Yeah pressures are high on cold starts, saw almost 120PSI this morning. And I noticed pressures very low during idle at around 8-9 PSI after oil was hot. But lets face it, a stock car would have the same issue so it has to be designed that way. But it is alarming. Perrin is a great group and team very grateful to them for support.
I have to use the bracket for the discharge pipe or mine starts banging around on the bumper beam, tried it already. I am sure I could bracket it in the wheel well but, tired of ****ing with things.
Why is your car apart you building motor? Are you still using Pentosin?
