As for the oil pressure reading, swapping in a mechanical gauge temporarily will enable you to get a "second opinion" to tell you if the original sending unit is going bad, or if you really do have a weird high-pressure problem there.

In short, switching to synthetic at an early point in the engine'* life may help minimize wear over the long haul, but switching to synthetic much later on will simply enable it to leak out through, and around, the wear that has already taken place.
