Default Searched: Quick Answer. Oil Pressure #s

Hi Guys,

Just curious if anyone out there is running a low compression LS/Vtec boosted application and what oil pressure you're seeing while cruising? If you could name speed and rpm that'd be great.

I'm asking because I find (currently only on 3psi but upgrading soon) and not putting my foot into the gas I'm at 50psi. Is this normal? low? high?

at startup the oil pressure will be very high mine is around 80+psi because of the cold oil, but once its warmed up it should drop

the colder your oil is the higher the pressure will be. i see 80-90PSI during cold start @idle and 16-18psi once warm.
