New gauge install. What's the normal cold oil pressure?

missing bezel or not, still looks really cool. Nice work!

Cold oil pressure, 60-70+ even at idle

Thanks Steve! Having read a number of posts on 996 forums, where they have cars that actually come with pressure gauges, I think that I have figure it out. When the oil is stone cold, it is thicker, hence the high pressure at idle. As it heats up, it fluctuates up and down with engine speed. Normal.

Exactly, at hot idle I see around 20 PSI. Highway driving is around 200F and cruising at 3000 RPM indicates around 50'ish I think.
