Most cars tend to read significantly higher gas mileage after installing larger injectors because the PCM gets its MPG readout through monitoring injector pulse times. Obviously, larger injectors present a change in pulse times but the PCM cannot adapt and reads high due to larger injectors flowing the same amount of fuel as stock injectors but needing fewer pulses due to the larger flow rate.
Fewer pulses = higher MPG readout.
