I have always heard a stocker D-jet pump is good for 60-80 psi, as well as $2-400. You can read about my alternative here. As I understand it, the 3rd outlet on a 3 port pump was a form of redundancy, duplicating the functionality of the pressure regulator, and a 2 port pump is fine. Before the above noted conversion, I had always replaced 3 port pumps with their 2 port equivalents. No ill effects, but less plumbing an less hassle.

The pressure regulator is a very simple mechanical device. You can test it with a bicycle tire pump and come creativity.
