Default 1st gen performance upgrades

Hey everyone, new to the site definitely like it so far. Im looking for some advice about performance upgrades on my first gen. I have a 90 w250 with 146000 miles, it has a danny t 2nd stage fuel pin and ive had the pump tuned. Hx35 turbo , and ive intercooled the truck. Im looking to find the right injectors to put on the truck with my set up and anything else yall might think of. Im trying to get some power out of this girl but also want fuel economy, because this is my daily driver.
thanks in advance Jake

Search and read.... other forums too. (dieseltruckresource, cumminsforum, ramchargercentral, etc)

IMO, no such thing as the 'right' match of parts on a diesel... more about identifying the limiting factor (in your case, fuel) and improving on it. 5x0.012" injectors would be a good start. Fuel economy is about how you work your right foot.
