These links talk about pressures, I had a quick galnce and although not specific for your motor they all seem to be about 1 bar cold control pressure and 3-5 bar warm control pressure. I does mention that performance gains can be made by altering the warm control pressure but like any HP gain you pay for it at the pump.

I have a gauge set - perhaps we can work something out. I bought it
from JC Whitney - not too expensive.

I made two of them 20 years ago when I worked for a Saab Indy. My boss
let me take the fittings from some parts cars, and I bought the gauges,
valves and lines. Cost about $25 total, getting the Bosch parts for free
and the rest at wholesale. I think the Bosch service tool was about $80
back then, slightly cheaper than an injector pop tester. When my old boss
died, I should have gone to his estate sale and bought the other one. I
can't guarantee the Saab fittings on mine are right for the 500, but it
seems feasible.

BTW, it is my opinion that the warm-up regulator is the most troublesome
part on K-jet systems I've dealt with. (on Saabs and Rabbits)
