the 86 has only 2.5 Bar fuel pressure(36 psi), lowest loaded and smallest pump of the cars mentioned.
The turbo B21ft runs fuel pressure at 5.4 Bar (77 psi) with a high output pump.
The non-turbo runs fuel pressure of 4.8-5.2 Bar (65-72 psi) with a less potent fuel pump.
Those numbers are all good, sleep well tonight.
(PS, if you get bored and start checking pre-pump currents expect .8 A, 1.4 A, and 1.0 A respectively assuming that all have the original pre-pumps. Add about .3-.5 A for any that have had the larger pre-pump installed.
