Default fuel pressure problem HELP!

i took of my turbo on my h22 accord, i did not take out my fuel pump for the reasons of dropping my tank. (takes too long to do) i'm putting the turbo back on in a few weeks. now my problem is my fuel pressure is a 50psi. when i lean out the regulator the lowest it goes is 50 psi? why cant i drop my pressure. i tried other
pressure regulators and they did the same thing. the reason i cant lower my pressure is because of the pump? or no.
burning rich as ****. what can i do?
thanks
Ryan

What kind of regulator are you using? It's possible that the pump is pushing enough fuel that you're maxing out your fuel return regardless of your regulator.....if it's a stock honda regulator, you can drill a little hole as described on http://www.theoldone.com or if it's an AEM you need to put in a larger dump jet....I'm using the middle sized one on mine and it works fine with my 255lph hp pump.....
