So instead of starting a new thread I'd figure I post here. Question is, I have a oil pressure gauge and now have an idea of my pressures.

On a cold start with rough ambient temp of 90F with 0W-20 pressure is between 90-100 after normal street driving in this temp the gauge drops to around 6-8psi at idle. Is that normal? Seems awful low to me, and after a 20min track session can bounce around 4psi.

I know I will not be running 0W-20 with these temps and most certainly not on the track anymore, just want to make sure my gauge is reading correctly.

Gauge is tapped in at the galley plug by the compressor.
