the purpose of the fuel pressure regulator is to keep consistent the pressure differential at any vacuum.

ex: injectors firing at WOT will be 35PSI of guage fuel pressure with 0PSI of guage manifold pressure. injectors firing at max vacuum will be ~20.3PSI with negative ~14.7PSI manifold pressure.

it's actually easier to think about in absolute pressures, but that's how it works to keeps injector flowrate consistent across all vacuum levels.

if you had a rising-rate FPR, that's a different situation, but those are worthless hack methods of tuning fuel delivery.
