I just do not believe that, to the level that you are posting about.
A 34-35MPG is almost 30% increase over the factory rating which have been posted to be fairly accurate at 27MPG. I understand turbos added create certain increases in economy but you also have the tune which plays a large factor. I doubt you sent the car home with an economy tune trying to maximize MPG.
