yes this is normal. i have my sx reg on my 2nd gen with a t04r.
An SX reg is a boost dependant regualtor. you have a vac line that runs to the manifold that allows for the reg to "self adjust" under boost/vac conditions.
when the sx reg recieves vaccumm (when you rev up)the reg reduces pressure.
when the turbo is producing boost, the reg pressure will increase as the boost pressure increases.
