FP how much is too much?

I just put on the Bully Dog fuel management system and now i have 22psi at idle and can only draw it down to 15 @ WOT.
Do you think these pressures are ok? It doesn't seem to be affecting anything but i am concerned it might be too much.
thanks

Fuel pressure is fine. That's what I see with my FASS II, 22 @ idle, 20 @ cruise.

I'd say you're in the clear. I idle at 25 psi on warm days so far, so good. Been like that for close to a year. Folks say not to go over 25 psi b/c it is hard on seals in the vp. From what I've heard and researched, no one has actually had a vp fail from too high of pressures. There is no hard evidence that one has bit the dust, its just kinda "don't go over 25 psi." I'm sure that someone can chime in here w/ some more info on the topic.
