Question Chips and oil

I am new here and am trying to get information on chips and synthetic oils. Does anyone use synthetic oil. I am looking at amsoil or royal purple or is it just a waste in a diesel. I never see synthetic diesel oil anywhere.
For the chips my dealer recommended the predator cause it comes off easy and is simple. I am looking mainly for better gas mileage and some power but I don't need a crazy amount of power. I just want something reliable. Also anyone try a K.O.R.E lift kit for their dodge?

2007 5.9l Slt 2500 Quad Cab w/gps and first time diesel owner.

A chip for mileage mixed with a lift kit seems silly to me. If you want the best mileage, run stock over aired tires. If you lift it, ... run bigger meat, you will want a box/downloader/ power upgrade to replace that missing get up that you will surely notice.
