Very High oil Pressure

Hi dudes,

I've got a problem on my 309 GT that might become a very big problem. Ever
since I got the car, last week friday to be exact, the oil pressure has
been up around the 7 to 8 Bar. 200 PSI if i'm not mistaking. When I look
under the hood, there is a sweat on most of the rubbers and seals and i'm
afraid that the meter is not broken so the pressure is really that high.
Does any of the 405 owners have an oil pressure meter and what does it
read??? Maybe even a 309 owner on the club???
BTW, there is one funny thing about the pressure. Whenever I take a turn
(left of right doesn't matter) the pressure falls and whenever i take it
straight again the pressure shoots up to 6 or 7 bar. The engine has also
begun to use more fuel, I think.

Greetz
and thanx in advance
