Oil pressure gauge

Hi kinda newb to the evo world right now but i am wonder why is a my oil pressure gauge reading at 100psi everytime i am shifting at 3-4k.. Is that normal oil pressure reading? I don't see anything leaks or anything on the car. Oil is full and was recently change.

What is the regular reading for the oil pressure gauge?

Mine at idel is about 30-40 psi.

Thomas,

Thank.

Normal = 4.something minimum at hot idle and 100+ psi at rpms with cold oil.

Yeah, mine only hits 100 on first start on a very cold day. I'd check the gauge install or have a shop look at it... might just be a gauge malfunction.
