Default Fuel Pressure Drop at WOT

My fuel pressure goes from 60 psi a idle down to 50 psi at WOT. With the psi drop at WOT, what is an acceptable range for it to drop?

None! Upgrade your fuel system before you break something!

I already have a 255 in-line fuel pump. What do I do, just buy another one and have it installed? Does the second one just add on to the other one? Anything special I need to have or know?

Thanks
