Depends on rpm, grade of oil etc. but with an oil temp. of around 90c and something like 10/40 oil, you should be seeing 80+ psi at 2000rpm

Agree with that. My car is an early WRX.

At tick over its between 30 - 35 PSI. Above 2000rpm it is at 90 PSI. All reading are when the car is well warmed through.
