What you should have a base of 33 to 40 psi with around additional 1 psi of fuel pressure per pound of boost you are making at the time.

FWIW, my base fuel pressue is set at 30 with the control hose on. At 12 lbs. boost my pressure reads 50 lbs.@6000 RPM's. This is with a 50 trim C26 and a in-cabin gauge, with a Aeromotive regulator.

That sounds within reason. My base is also around 30 psi and gets up to around 55 psi at 20 pounds of boost.

most aftermarket regulators are a 1 to 1 ... 1 pound of boost equals 1 pound of fuel pressure.
