As others have stated, 10 psi idle is alright, but I know exactly how you feel, hahah.
I remember an old V12 XKE I had a lot of work in years ago, idle oil pressure dropped to around 8-10 PSI when at operating temp. That engine was basically done.
Same story with my Spitfire, had to replace...
Still have a V1, probably almost 30 years old now. Not newish, but worth mentioning.
Its simply behind the ball compared to even some of the cheapest radar detectors today. Has difficulty picking up some Ka freq's that are commonly used today.
Some dude did a test on the classic V1 vs new...
Yeah, I was thinking of hitting it with fluidfilm in my garage. Just going to snag the creeper and blast it underneath everywhere.
I used to use this stuff at the first shop I worked at, would convert the rust on customer cars. But never applied fluid film before. I assume I just spray the shit...

The people saying that 'they should not chase, no clout' etc etc dont realize how bad this problem is in NY right now.
I have personally been in the car while it was hit by one of these swimmers. Its mobilizing an entire group of degenerate morons on social media to attempt to recreate this. I...
Completely negligible compared to burning it and/or glazing it upon taking off.
My fathers old MK4 GTI taught, like, three people and the clutch outlasted the car - 250,000.
Theres a dude who daily drives his Posrche from Massachusetts to Rhode Island, it currently has over 700,000 miles. He...
