Default Guage issue, Not reading correctly.

Alright sorry if this is a repost, I looked everywhere to try to find this issue before I posted but couldn't seem to find anything that was like this.
So I just had my car twin turbo'd with the GReddy kit, its running great, no real issues, tuned on the road...having a blast. Now little things are starting to pop up, first the axle clicking problem which is fixed now.
The issue Im trying to figure out now is that my oil pressure gauges shoots all the way up when I start the car and stays there, at idle, after its warm, while flying down the road...always the same. So I'm assuming theres something wrong with the sensor? My battery sensor does the same thing but it sits dead center.
This might be related but my E-brake light and battery light go on for around 10-20min after I start my car, but they eventually go off.
Any ideas?

well something is going wrong with my battery now. It seems like its my alternator so Im going to fix that problem first and see if that might be related to my gauge issue. I know that a bad alternator/battery can cause weird stuff to happen
