Correct oil pressure and oil temp for 99' Civic LX 4dr 1.6
Installed aftermarket gauges and was just wondering what the correct range oil pressure should be while idling and while general driving (like down a highway). And the temps. Thanks!

at idle mine is around 17psi, sometimes it drops to 12. at highway around 75. i threw on a rsx type s filter to bump up the oil pressure for the turbo and to prevent a spun bearing.
