I have been getting about 14 mpg when I keep my foot out of it somewhat. My pump isn't cranked much, my EGTs are at 1150F with it at WOT, so I'm sure I can crank it more and get more power, but probably lose MPG. I also have the stock torque convertor in my auto, which slips terribly. Also have 3.54 gears, getting ready to put 35" tires on it to get the rpms down a little lower. But that 14 mpg was towing an 18' car hauler too. Even without OD and towing about 60 mph with a 3/4 ton chevy truck on the trailer, about 7K lb load total, it got 14 mpg. So I'm fairly happy with the mileage right now. I think with a better turbo and new exhaust it'll do better. My buddy always tells me with a diesel, rpms are what eat fuel (provided the truck is tuned properly).
