MBC and gas mileage

I installed an MBC about a month ago and so far its been great. I have an Auto so I cant get the most out of it, but still it makes a tremendous difference in spoolup time, and a noticible difference in power. Now for my question, as the weather gets warmer and much much more humid, I seem to be getting BETTER gas mileage than before. I drove to my girlfriends the other night about 26 miles and its about 90% highway at 75 MPH and my SID (which I cleared right after leaving the house) read 31.5 MPG!!! Now im thinking, thats not bloody likely, so could it be that something about the MBC is fooling my SID? I started noticing the mileage increase right after the install and ive done nothing else since then, other than changing the oil and the battery but I cant imagine either of those doing anything. Anyone else experience anything like this? Am I taking my foot off the gas more and not noticing? Is my SID messed up? Any comments would be appreciated.
