Standard oil pressure (bar)?
What are the 'normal' max and min oil pressure readings for a newage (bugeye) wrx?
If possible, max and min for cold start and warm running?
Thanks in advance.

Just had to go somewhere in my MY02 Bygeye WRX and driving around it's 6.6 bar, upper rev limit it's nudging 8 bar and hot idle about 3.2 bar.
I'd say between 3 and 8 bar then for most situations
Hope this helps

Nice to know it's running 'normal'

Had another drive home from work and for most of the time it's 6.5 bar apart from at idle and overtaking. Looks like the Bugeye oil pump is one of Subaru's better efforts !!! LOL

When I fitted the PSi3 a couple of months back I noticed the oil temp was 1 degree and the oil pressure was 6.5bar.

However the other day I noticed it read 6.6bar so I moved it to the page I normally have displayed and have found that it changes often and is obviously displaying the correct pressure (thanks midlife
).I can only assume that the previous owner must've had gauges fitted and taken them out before selling.
