I thought so too but if the trade-off is some level of damage to the engine then I'm not sure what needs to be done.

I wanted to see what sort of economy figures I get out of my GenV GT wagon coming back from Jindabyne. Filled up the day before did 20km's or so running some errands then on the way home covered about 470kms and used just under half a tank on 98RON BP Ultimate. I was very impressed.
Car(s): Steel Silver MY10 GT Wagon + 1985 Subaru Sherpa

Mods: (GT) HKS Panel Filter. The HKS I put in the MY10 is the same filter I took out of my MY05 GT. So yes, they do fit. Custom leather heel pad to minimise carpet wear in the drivers footwell. Slotted front rotors. (Sherpa) 14'' 6 Spoke mags, Chrome Gear Shift (sick!), Alloy Pedals (sicker!), new positive and negative battery terminals, Alpine cda-9827 H/U, JBL GT 6x9's boxed and mounted (sickest!), Kicker DS650.2 component speakers mounted in the footwells in flibreglass pods, Alpine MRP-F200 4 channel amp (4x40wRMS), Rebadged with hektik chrome eBay badges, STi stickers for more powaaaa, "leather" handbrake boot, recarpetted with grey/black car carpet from Bunnings, sick Clarke Rubber boot mat, polished and waxed.

Is there a way to work if there has been any damage. I don't really see how; as Paul at Pulse racing seems well respected & I can't fault the car in any way.
