warm idle.. ~ shade under 1000rpm..and about 70-80C oil temp

gives about 200kPa pressure +/-

for calibration, 3000-4000rpm gives about 600kPa, with max pressure during VTEC at about 700kPa.

Thanks Kobe, Honda claim warm idle pressure should be 36psi/1000rpm so 200kpa is around 29psi so it's not far out. i'm just trying to get the dry sump pump modded to acheive a higher warm idle pressure at the moment we about 18psi down, so really need to sort this, idling at 2000rpm is a pain at the best of times.
