I used to know that as its the same for my 520. The low pressure is 
between 16-19 psi, The high is think was about 28-30...

It's a b**** to get the electrical backup to work in flight because you 
have to change the mixture with any power/rpm change.

I opted to go automotive(racing) single pressure 16 psi carbon vane 
pump, as that is the pressure you use for an in flight mech pump failure.

I think I have the data on the Duke at the airport in the overhaul 
manual.  I can check it next time I'm there if nobody else chimes in.
