my accumulator is feed from my remote filter. when i'm on the brake n limiter its at full capacity. when i need it at the end of a run slowing down it's feeding the system nicely at the 40 psi set pressure. back on the return road it's filling back up again til i'm back in the pit where it drains down. i'm feeding mine with a -10 hose which seems to do its job perfectly.
How do you set it to 40 psi pressure? Are you saying when your oil pressure drops below 40 psi yours kicks in?

Run at least a -8 line from the accumulator to the pressure side of the oil system. I use a ball valve for loading it for the next time I fire the motor cold. I tried an electric valve, but I couldn't get it to work properly.

How do you get it to recover quicker to regain oil pressure
It will only recover as fast as your oil pump will pump. If your engine is set up loose it will recover slower, light weight oil , small feed line , and where it's being fed from, all are a factor.
it's ok to butt heads, just don't do it with a butthead

i use a 10 AN line fed from the same side that returns clean filtered oil on a 4 port oil remote. A manual ball valve is recommnded bu manufactures for all race versions. The electrics do not react fast enough.At shut down I increase RPM's and raise the presure efore closing the valve.As intended opening the valve prior to starts by prelubing will increase bearing life
