2022 ZL1 oil pressure question

I have a 2022 Zl1 with 1600 miles on it and just had the oil changed. The before and after oil pressure is the same but compared to what I'm reading in these threads my pressure seems to be quite a bit higher than a large majority of others. At hot idle it sits right at 39-40 psi and at 16-1700 rpm's it's cruising at 51-52. I put it to about 5000 rpms for a couple seconds and the pressure was around 60 or so. I haven't been WOT yet so I'm not sure where it will be. Does anyone else have higher pressure like this?

You have the new upgrade oil system in the 2022 model.
Major failures in the past years. GM upgraded

Sounds normal. ~35-40 hot idle, ~45 cold idle, ~60-70 at WOT.

If you starting seeing it dip to like 20psi or so while idling then you know you have an issue.
