I have a TRD airbox and a couple of days ago I cleaned out the filter using aFe Power's air filter restore kit with the gold oil. I selected this cleaning kit because I found a TRD high air filter cleaning kit which appeared to be a relabeled version of the aFe kit. After cleaning the filter and applying the oil, it seems that my miles per gallon have decreased. Did I over oil the filter? Or did I use the wrong filter? Or is it just me thinking the MPGs decreased?
