Default how high is too high for residential water pressure?

our city water supply is at a really high pressure (over 150 psi) so
I can set the pressure regulator for any pressure less than that

I like really strong showers, how high can I go without reducing the
life of things?


Most sources recommend between 40 and 60 psi.
