    I stay in a higher rpm when climbing otherwise 1300 is perfect for mpg. I just wanna drive in direct more power and lower temps

    Higher rpm and low boost gives you lower temps. With my truck RPMs don't have any effect on fuel mileage but boost sure does. The higher rpm o run the less boost I use.

    Yep. Mine is still factory tune but when I get it tuned I don't think much will change cause I'm driving it the way it's recommend to drive the truck with the motor being tuned, if that makes sense.
