How's the Mutt been treating you? Everything working out like you hoped.

I took an in-house loan out to get me the home stretch and up and running.. last payment was this check I received Friday..
So I really haven't had any extra money to re-adjust my blind shot in the dark and fire again..
The bigger turbo I put on is too small,
Plan is
Swapped from a 362/68 to a 363/74
I have talked to Joe @hsp about doing a 464/82 with an external gate, the concern I have right now is I don't have the fuel to spin a s400 charger..
The p-pumped is getting replaced with a 12m with common style DV 181/191 vs mine has constant pressure.. should be able to flow substantually more and better tunability along with 4k GSK set for full fuel to 2600rpm currently starts pulling fuel about 1800
New core is $1300.
Then install the 5*.014 injector I have.
Alternator/starter/batteries have all died and been replaced since I got it up and running.
It's solidly in the mid 8s for mpg have seen 9.5-10.5 couple times..
Diesel is pushing 3.50 or better here in the in the Midwest...
On a 2500 mile week avg
8mpg is ~300 gallons
10mpg is 250g
12mpg is ~200g
Multiple by say 50 weeks that's alot of money I'm leaving on the table...
Pretty sure once I get the engine timing good pump, right turbo, MPG will come up..
EGTs get warm quick @50°.... been grade speed limited by egts.... Probably be nuts come humid 90s in the summer..
Plan new CAC/radiator this spring along with AC condenser/pump/receiver/lines etc
Insulation/sound deadening/weather stripping needs done but I don't have a heated shop...
Edit
