MPG is only related to the Tune, Compression and where you put you foot when you're driving...

if you don't want to change your springs, go with stage 1's.

(As a personal opinion, I would never install AM cams without changing the springs. Stock springs aren't meant for performance, just longevity. But that's just me and I'm a worry wort.)
