i started my 1jz after the single turbo swap and let it idle for a while today, i noticed that my fuel pressure reading was about 21 psi from cold start to being fully warmed up...is that where its suppose to be? also i didnt put a vaccume on it. car has walbro pump and 440cc injectors.

are u sure? that sucks im at around 20psi with the vac unplugged, guess ill have to adjust it. anyone else?
 
It probably does, I found I could back the regulator rite down to around 10psi & it still idled fine, the ECU will just adjust (within reason) the injection duration.

It's impossible to tune it exactly without a good wide band & a bit of RR time really. Has your car ever been tuned up & the fuel press set? Wouldn't want to start doubling the pressure without knowing.

I have mine set down real low at the mo on my 1j as its got 540's in running on a walbro & Aeromotive FPR but, I'm just test firing the engine at mo on the stock ECU so, the thing is getting through a bit of fuel! Will get the Solaris guy over in next week or so to hook up the new brain & pop a base map in so I can actually drive it to the test stations, get the suspension geometry aligned then get it down to the RR for a proper tune.
