Oil Pressure Issues

[Obsessionw/Boost]

My oil pressure gauge wasn't working for quite a while so I never knew what my oil pressure was. Now I fixed it and it's getting me worried. What should my oil pressure be for a completely stock 7M.

Stock turbo, Stock piping, Stock IC, Stock fuel injectors.
Nothing has been tampered with.

Almost nothing at idle, and a little lower than 40 @ WOT.

Oh shit you just relieved me!! Thanks for the info. I was sitting there when the car was at idle, and I saw it at about 20lbs. I got really worried.

I agree, when oil temps are above 190 F, oil pressure should be halfway inbetween the 20 psi mark and the 0 mark. At WOT above 3K rpm should be just under 40psi, like 38.

When oil temps are cold, it will hang around 40 at idle and while driving. Don't hammer it till the pressure comes down at idle aka when the oil is up to normal temp.

^ For the stock gage that sounds relatively accurate. If you have an aftermarket though, you'll see whats really going on.
