No, it's more like you don't seem to understand what you're asking. Are you trying to pressurize the fuel injector on the fuel supply side until the fuel injector sprays? What do you think the electrical connector is for?

Without knowing what exactly it is that you're rigging up, I suggest not to exceed the nominal key-on-engine-off fuel pressure of the vehicle the particular injectors came out of.

i built a on the rail fuel injector cleaner like the otc cleaner (see pic). im guessing i could run the pressure at the same as the fuel pump pressure or slightly below

I don't know what you mean by "fuel pump pressure" but if you were to disconnect and block the fuel return line, you shouldn't exceed the nominal KOEO fuel pressure.
