It's not an easy question to answer pumps are rated at a psi and flow rate they don't have a correlation you could get a 100psi pump that will push a 100gl a minute.

Plus you have open flow rates and restricted flow caused  by small jets.

Best bet is to go to the pump manufactures website and look up yourump

Or maybe ask someone who has 135 psi pump to use it for a minute with a stair tool pointed into a bucket and see how much water is in the bucket  ;)
