Default Stand alone fuel pressure setting????

My plate kit calls for 45psi of fuel, now my question is that is based off the factory fuel rail setting. Should I also set the stand alone to 45psi or should I drop it since the motor is already getting fuel from the factory set up. I dont want to overload it with fuel.
Oh and what should I do with the vacuum port on the regulator???

The kit consists of a Nitrous Outlet LT1 specific plate kit, Nano, 3gal cell in the trunk a Walbro inline pump in between the trunk and frame rail, a Aeromotive A1000 regulator under the hood and -6AN lines back and forth.

Your jetting for that plate is calculated off 45 psi so that is a good starting point. You will have to adjust up or down from there depending on where your air/fuel ends up and what the plugs are reading. Leave the vaccum port on the regulator alone so the pressure stays constant.

Great! I didnt want to run a vacuum line from the regulator. Ill start at 45psi and get the car up to Speedinc and on the dyno for final tuning.

BTW Speedinc just started filling bottles for those looking for it in the area!!!!!
