poor gas mileage, injector questions

Hello everyone...
I think i'm getting rather poor gas mileage... around 20, but not even close to 25 MPG on te highway...
I've done many modifications... but none of them should really affect mileage in my opinion...
what else could it be?
Modifications to date:
Open air intake
full 2.5 inch exhaust, turbo back
3.0 bar FPR
upgraded computer programs
2.1 head ported/polished with manifold work
i think thats about it for relavant engine mod info...
does anyone know what size injectors come stock on my 1990 9000 turbo?
Does anyone know of any injectors that i can swap these with with no problems?
I'm running programs that allow for 20 psi peak boost levels, but i'm guessing with my tiny stock injectors they can't provide enough fuel.
probably a post for the performance board...
