    The standard truck that the engine is taken from does 17-21mpg unladen

    thats US mpg,

    so 25 uk mpg

    ignoring the DPF, adblue system, cat that was in the original truck, and having an uprated air filter and exhaust id say gaining 7mpg is fairly easy for a vehicle thats more aerodynamic and weighs less.
