What should I expect the OE oil pressure gauge to show at highway speeds? I think mine's high, but its been consistent since I got the car running a couple of years ago. It's never caused any problems, but I'd still like to know if something is off. I have a stock engine and 14b turbo with balance shaft still installed. I'm running 5w-30 non-syn oil. Does the photo below look reasonable? Thanks for the help!

Most people will say to get an aftermarket oil pressure gauge with actual numbers as the stock one is usually junk and not accurate. However, that pressure seems "normal". Mine sits right around there cruising as well however I have my BS removed.
 
Same here. On my aftermarket gauge though I am running around 70-80 psi but no problems.
