When using a tuning box it's not unusual for the MPG reading to be 10-15% optimistic. Most MPG is calculated by using the injector pulse width at a set pressure level. As the tuning box increases the preasure the ECU may be realise this and underestimate the MPG.

It's worth doing a manual calculation to check if the on board computer is lying.
