I have a pretty much stock 5.8/351w in my f250 and would like to get better gas milage. Im currently getting about 12 or so. Though I was wondering if anyone has gotten better and how. I compute an average of 70 miles a day and every bit helps. Would a new intake, exhaust, injectors,...ect help. Let me know what you guys think
