As for leveling, it's German (EU) law that HID systems be self leveling. 100% irrelevant in the U.S.
Washing is required, as well ... and if you wash them they will be brighter than when dirty!
It will make your high beams seem brighter, but light output will not change. Litronics have a fixed cutoff shield that always blocks half of the beam, unlike bi-xenons.

No, self leveling will not make them any brighter or sharper, it just makes it look that way. Pointing a flashlight slighter higher doesn't make it any brighter, but merely changes the path of the beam/coverage area.
