Icon2 Just got oil pressure gauge wired up, but

My oil pressure is up there at 57 at idle. I had just installed Mfactorys adapter so I could get an easier spot for my turbo feed and the new oil sending unit for my gauge (SH motor so oil filter placement is A pain in the ***!) which is rather large. Anyways I wanted to know what kind of presures all of you are getting? I checked out a online honda manual and it states 10 psi min at idle and 50 psi at 3000k. Nothing in the FAQ area. Not to concerned just wondering.

This is 57 PSI when the engine is at normal operating temp? At cold startup, 57 PSI isn't anything to worry about, IMO. IIRC, oil pressure is higher than that at start up on my track car. However, coming off the track when the oil is at operating temp, idle pressure is around 20 PSI, give or take.
