Attention: TDR Forum Junkies I've done some upgrading & so far I've helped (or at least not hurt) my mileage as well as power. The truck got 19-20mpg on my normal commute when stock. I went to 285's from 245's & that helped the 4. 10 gears out a little but the mileage only increased by a couple of 10ths, I replace the exhaust with a full 4" sytem & the throttle response improved slightly but no noticable mpg improvement, I added an 11 plate, nice power no change in mpg, I had the timing bumped to 16 & picked up a full 1mpg, I had a 4kgsk done & swapped to the 10 plate (wow!) no mpg change after I quit pling with it 
. I just swapped axles to get 3. 54 gears & that's given me 1+ mpg & made the truck much more enjoyable to drive.
Of course I still want more, but I won't give up the 22+ mpg or the excellent drivability I have now. I do tow a TT ocaisionally. What injectors & turbo upgrade would be a good match? BTW my head is already oringed & ARP studs.
I'm looking at a BD super B or a B1-2 with stage 2 injectors or possibly 370's.
