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.
Don't forget FI almost always includes free flowing exhaust, no catalytic converter, and more efficient intake designs. Couple these with a custom tune and there is much more leading to the efficiency increase than the turbo/boost.
