I had a tdi and it was great getting 40 miles on a tank no matter how fast I drove, I did not delete anything , I would not do that and even if I wanted to dot my state would catch me, fuel is generally but not always more expensive, up there with premium , the big gotcha with my two wa snot that they cheated but the high pressure fuel pump was a ticking time bomb, I went through 3 of them, and they were fuc\\*\\*\\* expensive, like several thousands dollars to replace, I bought my car brand new and took care of it , the first one dies around 65,000 miles or about 2 years of driving, vw paid for that , the shop bill was 5 k, the best one dies on my about 120,000 miles and that was on my dime, cost me about 1800 and that was with a donated HPFP and not draining the gas tank 100 %. which is not the proper way to replace it but at that point VW was already buying mine back and I just had to get it there in running condition. I also would have needed a new DPF which VW wanted about 2 k to replace.

As a former TDI owner who had their HPFP blow up at 28,000 miles, I'd suggest going with the 2.5 and calling it a day. I can't speak to the exact mileage you'll achieve with a good amount of highway driving, but for me there's no way I'd own another CR TDI from the VW product group until they figure out why they have $8,000 ticking time-bombs under the hood
