If it's a 1:1 FPR you bought then the full BOOST (not throttle) fuel pressure would be the idle pressure plus the boost pressure.
If idle is 37.5psig and you run 11psig boost then the fuel rail pressure should be 48.5psig.
I am guessing at the idle pressure. I have absolutely no idea what it would be, but probably not far off from 37.5psig.

If the pump cannot cope with the increased fuel flow then the pressure will fall. You need to run a temporary gauge line so you can see it and make sure that it rises at 1:1 with boost pressure.
After you confirm it once, remove the temp line. OR buy an electric gauge and run a permanent hookup.

look, take the vac line off, this creates a WOT situation, becuase there is no vac on the FPR. Your fuel pressure should be about 44psi (3bar).

is it safe to run 11psi at 44psi 3bar. if i raise boost to 14psi do i need to change fuel pressure?? or just leave it at 44psi??
