No, that stuff is a joke. Dont waste your money. Just change your filter and if you need to clean the injectors, you have to take them out of the car.

The second vid shows a better result why people need to run what the car is tuned for. The turbo cars performed much better with higher octane and im sure the additives played little in the debate. Also i would bet the Shell got an advantage of being last in all the test.
