Smile Fuel presure gauge

Sandy gave me the past two days off so I started and finished one of my winter projects. Installed a fuel presure gauge. Anybody know what it should show at idle and around 3000 rpm ? (92 lt-1)

The one that goes to the fuel reg; the can thing on the LH end of the fuel rail shown in your pic
Plug the end that goes to the intake
