Yes, this will give you the correct adjustment. There is SOME 
chance that your pump will deliver enough flow to do this, but that it 
can't deliver enough to keep the pressure up when driving. In this 
case the engine will lean out under load. The fix for this is usually 
to replace the filter, or replace a kinked hose. At any rate, the 
pressure adjustment you made statically will still be correct.
