Low Oil pressure
I have a heads and cam L76 in a G8 GT. I have a high volume oil pump that is 6 months old. I changed the pressure sensor so its not the problem. I checked the HP tuners and it said it's at 25 psi at idle when you rev it its at a good pressure. Has anyone else had this problem? What's going on what should I do?

25psi at idle doesn't seem that low. What is your idle set at? Most guys I've seen are between 25-32psi. Mine is pretty high with the Melling high volume. Idles around 35-40psi when warm.
Edit: What bypass spring do you have installed? I'm assuming it's a melling pump.
