LOTS OF ??????'s

Ok guys, i have lots of questions and would like to hear from some input. Just got my truck back together and got some new toys to play with..I just had Don build some 1.8's for me and got them in and all I can say is WOW...now here for the questions...I installed a Rail Pressure gauge and would like to know some round-about numbers I should be seeing on it...I am seeing about 6500psi idle pressure, 17000-20000psi 65 mph pressure, and about 23000psi wot pass... now I am running a Smarty POD on SW2 with the POD set at 99 and haven't touched any other parameters. I am running a K & N filter and only a small (20") muffler. I do have a Hi Tech Turbo 62/12 on it. I am no longer running the Quad box that is listed in the signature and don't plan stacking anything with the smarty. Without the Smarty I was seeing a 25000psi wot pass and was just wondering where, pressure wise do i need to start worrying about draining the rail. Also I am running the stock CP3 and Stock lift pump in the tank. Would also like to get some ideas about towing with the Smarty..where should i start with the settings? Also would like to know about settings for everyday use on the Smarty as well. I do have a built Tranny, billet shafts and torque converter. I have been driving my truck around so long with the injectors acting up i forgot just how good it could be....
Thanks Guys

The quad Std would bump the rail pressure up to 25K. The Smarty without any adjustment will go to 23K from what I remember. You'l have to play with the Smarty settings. You want to keep the rail around 23K. The higher settings with the Smarty are going to drop it down. Hard to give you the best setting for the Smarty because every truck is different and you have upgraded stixs so you will have to play a bit.
