Smarty REVO - adjustments for mileage towing?

I tow at moderate weight, cross the scales at 20K. I have downloaded the Rev0 sw, and am looking for best ways to use it. Looking for fuel mileage while maintaining enough power to pull the hills and for passing. Has anyone done some tuning and know where to start from? I ran the comp on 3/3 when towing before the smarty, and averaged 11-12mpg. With the smarty I was running sw#4 and comp 3/2, haven't done any long hauls so don't really know the mileage with that combo.

What are others running on adjustments?

Thanks in advance for any feedback.
Jeff
