ok i have a gsr bottom with a b16 head(all stock) and at idle i get about 30-40psi and while driving i get about 50psi, at 3000 rpms i get around 65-70 psi. my question is when i floor it it will blip up to the 100 psi mark right before vtec then go back down to 75 psi and stay there. is that normal?

 

sounds high to me, but bump for a sure answer

 

what would cause high oil pressure?

 

bump for the problem

the odd thing is the oil pressure will sit at 25psi at idle, while driving it sits at 55psi, at WOT it sits at 75psi, but at 3800 rpms it with jump up to the 100 psi mark then go back down to normal

i hope

 

when u put the gauge in did you use the correct size line?--wont pressure increase if the line is too small?
