Are you guys using a caculated pid to determine your fuel economy mpg, or actually filling the tank and figuring the mpg based on mileage? if you are using a pid (as GMCtrk eluded to), you may be having issues because of how the pid calculates mpg... I would have to look at the pid to find out, but that is a possibility...

MPG(mi/gal) = {SAE.VSS.mph}/({GM.INJFLOW.lbpm}*(({GM.IBPW1}+{GM.IBPW1})/2)*{SAE.RPM}*4/6073)
For fun, I lowered my O2 switchpoints from 450mV to first 400mV, then to 370mV. There was no appreciable change in the wideband AFR, but the average O2 voltage dropped from ~460mV to ~405 mV, then to ~395mV. In stoich cruise my O2's range from about 40 to 740mV with the switchpoints at 370mV. No codes. I know this wouldn't fix the issue, it was more for experimenting.

Launching!
Are you sure your timing is staying where it should when cruising? Do you have hills, etc on the road while logging? Just want to make sure this is this steady state, no boost mpg logging. I'd do a manual mpg calculation just to make sure the calculated PID is not off with the new injectors.
