Keeps it from turning into an oil leak later. You could leave it alone, but it may start to leak oil one day.

What kind of air intake/air filter are you using?

"Surge" is when the compressor stalls due to inadequate air flow on the intake side.

I'm having no problems at 25 psi with the AIS intake system.

The wicked wheel should reduce airflow through the compressor, which is one way of stopping the stall. Seems they've cut half the compressor blades to half height.

I've never seen any airflow/psi comparisons between stock and the wicked wheel. That would be useful information.
