They come oiled. After a while they get dirty. You wash them and then re spray with their oil and let dry. Never had an issue.

With CAFE standards, I don't think OEM is giving up easy MPG gains. Look at what VW risked to achieve fuel economy regulations while still trying to design a car people want to drive.

This is a commonly held belief that is absolutely wrong.
Speaking of VW, a good intake can gain you 16hp, like mine did on my Mk6 GTI, dyno verified. That was sans tuning for it, even. With my stage2+ tune, with 93 octane w/o ethanol and injecting meth into the engine, I got 41 mpg on tanks...calc'd. Computer said 38mpg. EPA for my car is 30.
Manufacturers do things for cost AND cafe.

Did you go on a 350 mile road trip with the cruise set on 60 mpg the whole time?
What filter do you run? Previous owner of my car put an oiled filter in, and I want to change it out.
Also, what is your email? I need to discuss some troubleshooting with you regarding boost loss issues.
