Oil Pressure Problems

Hopefully someone can share some light on this?
So ,when I drive my 1.8 Gti after 20 mins of driving the oil pressure light and buzzer sound until I blip the throttle and it stops.
Ive now just fitted a new sender unit to the side of the head which now makes my oil pressure gauge work (which it never has)!
Wired it all in as per instructions and when I started the car the gauge was reading 2/3 bar or so, give or take.
I took it up the road and after a 5 to 10 minute drive the pressure on the gauge had dropped to just over 1 when driving and then when im off the throttle the buzzer sounds and light flashes. (as it did originally)
So I guess what im asking is :
A What should the pressure be at what RPM
and
B What might be making the pressure drop
The car doesnt use any oiland has recently had the bottom end barings replaced and the head skimmed.
Any help is much apreciated
Thanks
Dom
