I think not, and 25ish psi? Use a smaller feed line, or an oil restrictor.

Nothing less than 25psi, and I wouldnt use a fuel pressure regulator considering they are designed to work with manifold pressure.

Is this going on a Kia or what?

if you have a good turbo it will have a built in restrictor
