That is true, but you also have to consider that the tune is where it takes advantage of all of those changes.
And I would bet most are designed to harness that open exhaust/intake design as quickly as possible to build power quickly. In the end I really really really doubt anyone is getting 30+ MPG on any forced induction VQ37.
