Quadzilla XZT, maybe +2, STG 1 Injectors -1, BHAF +1, Straight pipe +2 (its so loud the people (police) stare if you push on it so it encourages a light foot, for me anyways) Ranchahand bumper -1, flatbed -2, 35" tires +1 HWY -3 town.
The best MPG my 05 got was with BHAF, Quad XTZ on #2, straight pipe, stock tires and bumpers, 22 down the HWY consistently at 65-68 MPG or 17 in town.
I now get about 18 HWY or 13 in town. about like stock...
I used to run additive of 8oz TCW3 and 8oz D PS cetane boost per tank, may have gave me 1MPG and did give me a quieter idle
I now run Standyne every 3rd tank, no MPG or sound diffrences, just insurance for my fuel system.

I travel across the U.S. and run my smarty on catcher 3 with the 4.4 beta... I run a average of 70 mph at 2200 rpm at about 14,000 on the rail and im getting a hand calculated 23.5 mpg. I keep my boost down below 10 as much as possible.....

Here's what I have seen from the boxes/downloaders I have tried. These are all highway averages.
Stock=16 MPG
Juice W/Attitude was around 17-18 MPG
Diablo Predator 17-18 MPG
Juice W/Attitude stacked with Quad X2 18-19
Smarty TNT 19-21 MPG
Smarty TNT stacked with Quad X2 22 MPG.
These are all at an altitude of 4300 average in southern NM and hand calculated. I know every truck is different, but I hope this helps.

I've seen similar mileage with some of the same power adders.
