I thought the pressure was kind of high myself! Mine usually idles right around 75-80 psi. I guess I was just always used to the old school (non-fuel injected) cars which use only a 0-15 psi gauge.

If I ever have a problem with my car starting or dying after start-up, I can tell if I have a fuel system problem in about 2 seconds.
