Depends on the year truck you have. My 02 stock had 275 HP with 525lbs torque. Actually more HP means more fuel. However it takes less throttle to get up to speed and maintain it so a good econo tune will increase your mileage based on your right foot control

I could be wrong (it happened once 
) but I am pretty sure the sticker on my engine says 275. '01 6spd.
I have a variable resistor on the oil pressure sensor, I would really love to know how much that actually raises the hp. Anybody ever dyno?
