1) Fit a bosch pump
2) do a mild stage1 tune 3) run on veg oil for 50-75% of the cost of diesel

Is there a way without veg oil, just using pump diesel, I figure that the amazing increase in power by relatively small adjustments to fuelling boost etc to the XUD9TE would suggest that economy (though not a popular thread) could also be tweaked in some way, I am a full on newbie mind!

Its known that a stg1 tune will improve economy.
You could reduce fueling a bit...but you may find the need to boost more to get going!! Wishes for more power...

GT15 or newer if you can.
VE pump. Tweak Injection quantity a little for improved torque. Play with timing until best results are achieved. Went from the original T2/K14 and ~45mpg to a GT15 which gave low 50s to the GT20v and instantly was up to 58mpg on a run - amazing the efficiency gains from modern turbochargers.

I'd be interested in an economy setup too doing 100+ miles a day to work and back.
Are the GT15/GT20v direct fits ?

Very late XUD9s - Generally on a T plate.

What Ruan said, aside from making sure your running a bosch pump with good injectors / timing, the best thing that will effect your MPG is the turbo....
You wouldnt believe how far turbo technology has come fowards since the old T series....They can move air so efficiently now its unreal... | Dyno Power Runs & Steady State Facilities Available, Just Ask Anytime |

My car is on a T plate, so does that mean I might have the GT15 already ?
Just need to sort out a Bosch pump setup now...
