I'm not sure what normal is but my oil pressure when cold starts out around 60 and once it warms up it idels around 20-22 and then while driving it goes between 30 and 42. I imagine it would vary depending on your gear ratio and how many rpm's the engine is running at. I switched to 10w-40 and used a fram filter and it seems to have helped a little.
