Lower temp contributes to much higher viscosity and higher pressures until the motor is able to warm the fluid, which in turn reduces the viscosity and thins the oil, dropping the pressure to normal range.

This is why most modern oiling systems have a bypass, so the motor is not starved of lubrication under cold startup conditions and the risk of bursting the filter.

For those that have swapped their oil pressure gauge for a GT350 gauge, does the backlighting color match the other backlighting in your car?

If the backlighting matched the rest of your car, what part number gauge did you use?

I saw YouTube video of someone that did the swap, and the backlighting only lit white in the GT350 gauge.
Pretty sure 350 doesn’t have mycolor so it’s white only

Yeah Mycolor isn't supported, mine is white all the time.
