Evening people, need you advice/confirmation

I have just this afternoon fitted a sandwich plate and an oil pressure gauge, my understanding is that normal pressure is 4-5 bar at the oem oil pressure point, my gauge is reading a steady 7 at the filter where the sender is installed. This reading was at idle by the way.

Can you tell me the normal oil pressure reading at the filter? am I getting a correct reading?

 

on my gauges i have got 3 bar at idle, and 6 bar when driving, but my sensort are at the standard location for the pressure

 

i was under the impression you cant install the pressure sender in the sandwich plate ?!?!

some1 miss led me i guess

cold idle 6-7bar

Hot idle 2-3bar

hot cruise 6-7bar

should be the same through out the system afaik but these figures where what I got from the normal pressure switch location by the alternator.

i have one on mine ,pressure and temp in sandwich plate .about 6-7 when cold about 3-4 on idle when warm about 6 when on a run

but im taking it off cos last time i wheelied i scrapped the filter on the track.and i dont need it there on my new engine

 

Used the scoob for work this morning and the gauge ranged from 7 bar at cold start up to 3 bar at warm idle in traffic to 6-7 bar with a little bit of pedal coming off a roundabout so I guess I am getting the right readings.

Cheers for the help guys, I guess I just needed my mind putting at rest.
