No, your oil pressure should go up as the RPM's of your engine go up. More RPM's more pressure, less RPM's less pressure.

Yes I second that. Higher the RPMs the faster the oil pump spins there for it makes more PSI of oil. Nothing to worry about, if it didn't go up that's when you should be freaking out.

You should really be concerned if you no oil pressure or low pressure.
