Which of these setups would give the best gas mileage??
Let me first state that I DONT care at all about HP or performance, this is is just for fuel economy!
the car is a 94 EX which setup should give teh best gas mileage
bone stock d15b
OR
d15b with a really small internally gated turbo (maybe 5psi)
OR
d15b with header, exhaust and cai
I know turbos or bolt ons can increase the effciency of an engine resulting in higher MPG
and also what transmission CX,VX or EX?

The stock would probably give you the best mileage, least amount of problems, and therefore the lowest cost/mile
if you really want good gas mileage get the d16 out of the HX or VX

D15b with bolt ons with the cx or vx trans. As long as you are not stepping on the gas like most people with exhausts, intakes and headers do you will pick up MPG.
