Smile Turbo upgrades and Fuel Average??

Dear all members,
I have been pretty intrested on the twin turbo upgrade for my 05 dodge. I have already made one thread regarding my future plans, but last night, the wife and I went for long drive after getting the FASS upgrade. We were getting amazing Mileage for a truck that is chiped, intake, exhaust, tranny upgrades and now fass. My trip computer Read 906km after filling up, keep in mind this is 4wd with 33 inch tires (soon to be 35s). I had the edge set on level 1, the milage setting and we were crusin at about 120km/hr. I still had very good passing power if needed, and I liked just chilling out and enjoy the scenery.
Now my question is will my mileage be drastically affected by added a Twin turbo (BD super B twin kit is what i am thinking), dual cp3 upgrade, 75hp injectors?
I would like to have the extra power but will i see fuel mileage decrease even under normal highway/city driving conditions on level 1 edge box. I know if i wanna play i got to pay and i ant worrey about that when it come to putting the box on level 5 making some smoke!! But you have to think about normal driving conditions especially if it is your daily driver.

One more Question while we are on this topic of twin turbos. Who makes the best Twin turbo kit? I like bd because they are local for me and if **** hits the fan i can knock on their door anytime. also there are good turbo kit. what your opinion would be a value to my decision.

If you're dependant upon others for mechanical help, such as myself....a local vendor is a very big thing for the complex expensive pieces....so BD Looks pretty good....as no one lives near me, i was looking at eventually adding a second turbo from Wicked or MPI....
