Default what to do??

so i have two things i want to do to my tahoe but i can't decide which one. its not going to happen right this moment but in the nearish future.

one is a twin turbo ERL motor with 4l80e swap. the other is a full d-max swap. they both can make big power. both with cost close to the same d-max maybe a little more. ERL motor can make big big power but i will loose a lot of mpg. where as the d-max can still make good power but keep the mpg up while not using that power. so.... what to do, what to do?

I seen some tahoe/suburban setups that were getting 25mpg plus and were pretty swift.

i've been leaning toward the d-max for a long time now myself. dmax with some finger pistons, a big and litttle and some good fuelers.
