Depends on your current vacuum at idle, (camshaft), and how much boost you are running.

You could also reference the regulator T'eed with an adjustable bleed to the carb hat, then can you dial up what your fuel pressure curve is separately to boost.

For safety, any fuel pressure gauge in the cabin can be either electrical or mechanical. If the latter it s/b connected through an isolator so there's no gasoline in the cabin if a line leaks.
