The VVEL system will run the engine at as little as zero vacuum during steady state cruising. You fuel pressure will swing around about 10psi up and down if you are watching it at the right time. Whether it bothers you or not just depends on your expectations of the tune and its consistency. With a VVEL engine, manifold vacuum is not a consistent or linear measurement of engine load. With that relationship broken, the only way you can gain true repeat-ability of the fuel pressure is to take the vacuum out of the equation. It wont hurt the engine or even matter during full throttle... it would basically just be like a little gremlin sitting in your engine bay turning your fuel pressure up and down when cruising down the road.
