Default Seeking Higher MPG

Just joined Diesel Bomber and I have a Question. I've been seeking better fuel mileage and power. Right now I have a custom ram air intake that involved moving the battery to where the air box was located and then I built a intake manifold out of three inch pipe. I still don't no result of them yet, I am almost done then I will post pics. Also I have a BD wastegate and a Bd 230hp fuel plate in stock location with star wheel tuned to keep smoke under control but not sure if its tuned properly. Next I'm planing on setting pump timing and and installing new 50hp ddp injector Im in hopes this will get me from my currant 15mpg back to my stock 21mpg anything I'm missing that could help would be appricated.

A nice 4 or 5 inch exhaust system helps do you have any fuel supply mods like Fass or airdog?

The injectors will make a difference alot but the tires make a difference too.

Timing should help out alot, your timing might have slipped some and in return the milage will drop some. Bump it up to 16 or so and let us know how it does. Also if your lookin for better mileage slide your fuel plate back towards the cab some if you got it at full foward.
