I may be wrong but as this is a vacume operated riseing rate regulator so on tick over you will only see this type of pressure till more fuel is required.

Hope this helps

at idle i would guess something like 3bar or just under and under boost should rise accordingly so 3 bar at atmospheric ie 0 on ur boost gauge so at 1 bar pressure 4 bar...idle and up to atmospheric the fuel pressure will move very littl only under boost will it increase

Stock is 38 psi at zero vacumn, so idle is a little lower.
