I have a 2002 dodge ram 2500 p pumped. The truck has a compound set up of a 62x68x12 turbo and s475 turbo. I have 125hp DAP SAC injectors, p7100 pump with afc live, 191 delivery valves and a fass 220 running fuel pressure at 55-63psi (depending on how long the truck has been driving and outside temps). The truck has 18" fuel rims with 35x12.5r18 toyo rt's. I have a build trans rated for 900hp with a billet triple disc torque converter. The truck is a long wheel base. around 70mph I run at 1700ish rpms and around 10-12lbs of boost. at 85mph I run around 2100rpms and 15-18lbs of boost. EGT's at highway speed stay around 800.
Before I converted the truck to a ppump, I was running the same transmission and wheel/ tire set up. But I had a smarty sr on the highest tune, with a fass 150 and a S363 turbo. I was getting better fuel mileage at that setup than I am with my ppump setup. So I don't believe my issue lies with my wheels, tires or transmission.
My question is how can I get the mpg's on this truck up? No matter what I do, I get 13mpgs so far. That is highway (65mph some routes, up to 85 some routes) and in town. Do I need injectors built for a ppump instead of vp44 ones? Different delivery valves? Tuning? All the above?
Help would definitely be appreciated and would like to get 15-16mpgs.
