Default 2001 24v high fuel pressure

Hi fellow 24v ers
just installed a Airex E7153 lift pump in tandem with in tank pump, in tank was running low 7-8 psi idle, 5-6 loaded, hooked up new pump, now have 30 psi idle, 28 psi loaded, too much pressure for VP44, anyone know where can I get a pressure regulator, in line 15-16 psi preferred,
thanks for this

Maybe shut off tank pump?

You would be better off getting rid of the intank pump, and installing Vulcan Draw Straw V. Cost may be similar for a regulator, but the Draw Straw is a better way to go.
