This was probably 115psi as measured later on at the oil cooler exit. The 
pressure drop between the filter and the measuring point means that the 
actual filter pressure will be higher than what we see on our gauges.

I'd still recommend the pressure relief pump cover to help with this problem 
since it attacks it at the source.
