I'm wondering what everyone's oil pressure runs at. I have a raptor 400 in my boat and at surf speed I run about 44 psi. What does everyone's oil pressure read at idle, surf speed and wakeboard speed? And what motor do you have? The manual says my oil pressure should be 18 psi at idle so i feel like I'm running to high. Also what temp, I read a consistent 163.

My oil usually runs anywhere from 25-30 at idle to 50-55 at board speed, any thing from 20-60 is ok, the old rule of thumb is 10 psi for every 1000 rpm but i don't like seeing one idle below 20, and the water temp is spot on what you're seeing
