Depending on how old &/or tired your old injectors were, fresh injectors can
lead to better fuel economy.  You don't mention that you made any change in
your ECU or software?  Better, well perhaps one should just say "different"
software can also result in significant mileage changes.

Not sure about the cam alone.  Heck, I don't know if anyone on the list can
tell you exactly what an exhaust cam change alone, all by itself is worth as
far as a power/performance difference, much less a 7A exhaust vs. the RS2
exhaust cam.

~The talk of injectors has reminded me about an
~observation of mine.
~
~About a month ago I switched to 37#/hr. injectors and
~somehow my (92's) computer is telling me I'm now
~getting avg. MPG of about 21.5.  In the past with
~stock injectors and RS2 turbo, I was seeing more like
~about 17 all-around MPG.  All other factors are more
~or less constant except I also switched out the
~exhaust cam to a 7A type at the same time.
~
~Any explanation for why I'm showing better fuel
~economy given I should be burning more fuel with the
~larger injectors -- or is it a calibration issue with
~the Motronic ?  I haven't yet just calculated my
~mileage by actual fuel volume used vs. miles which I
~keep forgetting to do.
