Interesting build, from my understanding, if you up compression over factory, the engine *should* be more efficient. I might do similar with my corolla with over 240k on it some time before 300k.

Since your increasing engine size/power, I think it would be a good thing to look into upping your gearing a bit to put more load on the engine which should make it run more efficient too.
