Fuel pressure for a turbo II

[Archbish]

I\'ve a nice shiny aeromotive Fuel Pressure Regulator, which is adjustable and has fuel rising bit for when the turbo comes on song.  I have two questions:
1 - what is the default fuel pressure for a 2nd gen turbo II?  I need to adjust the FPR to suit
2 - should I be connecting the rising rate connection to ensure the fuel pressure increases with the boost, or do you think the microtech ecu will allow for this, and put more fuel in without the increased pressure behind the fuel?

Thanks for your help...

+1 on the answer lol the FPR should have a rising rate of 1:1

The stock FPR has a vacuum/boost reference and increases fuel pressure with boost.  That way the ECU always knows the fuel pressure the injectors are seeing - so your fuelling is just a percentage of their maxium rated value - simplez
 
FSM says static pressure is between 34 and 40 psi (around 2.5 Bar) which is the pressure for the rated flow on the fuel injectors

My 1680 Bosch injectors say they have a static pressure of 43psi

Thanks Prof - is that at idle, or just key turn?  Only reason I ask is that I have just found this in the last 5 mins:

"At idle, the fuel pressure should be about 28.4 psi. When the FPR is vented to the atmosphere, the fuel pressure should be between 34.1 and 34.9 psi. With engine off, ignition key to the on position, and yellow connector jumped, the fuel pressure should be between 64.0 and 85.3 psi." (source)

When you turn the key and jumper it, the fuel pump is priming the rails, so it will have a higher pressure.

Not idle - that\'s the test done with the yellow check connector shorted (which gives the fuel pump full voltage) and the engine not running - so the FPR see\'s atmospheric pressure.
 
If you don\'t short the yellow check connector - the stock ecu shuts the fuel pump off after a few seconds if no cranking occurs - I\'m guessing the Microtec doesn\'t use the yellow connector at all.
 
I\'m sure the other test is done with the return blocked or something - to check max pressure the pump can deliver.

Bishy it should be aroud 43psi base with vac line connected..
