I run just a little over 50psi, which is the most my regulator will =
allow.  The higher pressure will increase atomization.  It will increase =
fuel flow a bit, but that is easily handled with a bit of tuning, unless =
you've sized your injectors to large.  I have my MegaSquirt configured =
for staged injection, so that at low MP and RPM only one set is used.  =
That has been effective in delivering a smoother idle.
