I think they are a good addition for boosted cars, as they are not running within the design tolerances of the original engine. I haven't seen any proof that they do much on stock cars, other than making owners feel better about a slightly cleaner intake manifold. I do think the companies making them have marketed the hell out of them.If you are just using it on the track, and not really doing any part throttle stuff, then I'm not sure how helpful it would be since you are running almost no vacuum (WOT) to "pull" the vapors into the intake manifold.
I just bought one for mine. If my post earlier was misunderstood, I was explaining why the OEMs don't do it - I'm not saying they shouldn't do it though. Especially for forced induction cars, they practically squirt oil through the rings.
