I used this stuff not long ago and it does work. As soon as I drove the car after using it the car seemed smoother from the off. My car had done 60,000 miles.
A did this at the same time I fitted my ported manifold. First of all I de-coked the engine with this stuff then took the car for a spin.
A noticible improvement then fitted my ported manifold. Took it for another spin, felt like the car had a bit more go in it.
A week later I gave the car some hammer and managed to get 117mph out of it. I wasn't able to get over 110mph before these mods.

If you wanna try it then get it off Ebay like I did for £17.50.
Oh and by the why when I took my manifold off after decoking the exhaust ports looked pretty clean.

If you read the post clever cloggs you will see that I said that I did the manifold at the same time as the Power boost.
Power boost then ported manifold all at the same time. The difference was apparant after doing the Powerboost only as I took it for a spin and the engine was smoother.
Then I added the deburred manifold and took it for another spin. Better response and better top end was noticible after doing the manifold. Then a week later managed to hit 117mph.

Where in any of my posts did I say that the Powerboost gave me better top end alone? Read 'em again!

And as for the 117mph Greeny. You still seem unable to grasp the fact that I said I did it after doing some mods. So where is the bulls..t in that.

In future just don't bother asking any questions here as you seem to have ALL the answers anyway and won't accept a damn thing anyone else says!:twak2:

I have used this spray in 2 cars, the 1st was a 100K 420GSi, on this it just made the engine run a bit smoother, nothing to write home about.

The 2nd car I used it on was a 67K 220Gsi, this had a rather bad sticky valve problem when cold starting which would last for about 7 minutes, also the car was missing the oomph that the 420 had, After using the product the sticking valve had cleared up and mucho power was restored, BUT 6months later the sticking valve is back so its time for a head job :***: .

All in all, imo not a bad product, would be good for a dodgy used car salesman to smooth out a rough engine, as far as long term effects not so fantastic.

As I said this is all my opinion of using it, not to say that it doesnt cause problems sometimes (as I totally agree with the theory) but lucky no probs for me.
