Default Fuel pressure reccomendation???

So I installed a liquid filled FP gauge on the Civic yesterday, start er up and was kinda supprised at what I saw. 43psi at idle, nearly 50 at WOT. Seems a little high no? Mind you this is on a stock D16 w/ 440cc injectors and a 255lph pump. Anyways, I was curious as to what you guys think would be a good FP setting static for such large injectors? I was thinking of lowering it to about 35-36psi @ idle to help with my hard starts some. Right now @ 10psi of boost I still have only about -13% trim in the upper end, so I still have room to increase to compensate if need be, any sugestions? Also, where can I pick up a good FPR for a decent price? I have reservations about a $200 AEM unit
