Before the 110 recall, it ran at 32ish now it's 48ish what gives?

Perhaps they dumped some straight 80 weight in the oil tank.

Nothing in the 110 engine "enhancement" program should affect oil pressure, you should still be running between 30 and 35 psi with the engine at normal operating temperature (230°F). Either the gauge is screwed up, the weather has gotten a lot colder, or perhaps they managed to get some trash lodged in the pressure relief valve. Whatever it is (other than cold weather), they need to fix it.

well your problem is the opposite of mine...my oil pressure went to around 16 indicated at 3K rpm when hot...good luck
