a lot of factors change this, but 80 is about right. oil psi is good ;D

To add to the OP's question, is there a such thing as TOO much oil pressure in these cars? I mean, if he's reading at 80psi, would that be considered "too much?" hehehe..I suppose if the "80" on the gauge was red in color, it'd be considered bad
