It's generally acceptable to have the fuel pressure set between 38-42psi with the vacuum line "off". It should read approximately the same at all RPM. If you're stabbing the pedal hard and it's dipping far below the recommended levels and is unable to, or having trouble recovering, you may have a weak, or undersized fuel pump.

The stock fuel pump is only rated at 88lph and will often become inadequate when big horsepower mods are performed.
