CRC Intake Valve/Turbo Cleaner

[HAHAFiST]

Who’s used this stuff? I’ve hear mixed reviews about it being good on the turbo seals. Curious if anyone has had a good long term experience with it.

I can't see the picture. Also I can't see how this would work on a DI engine.

Yeah I think it’s a band-aid to doing some real cleaning. Walnut blast is the only way.
Here’s the photo,

Is this the product you are referencing? I can't see your pictures either.

Ok yeah I suppose if you had the intake manifold off you could spray that stuff in there. Where does the gunk go though? Is the theory that it would get burned off next time you started the car? Pretty sure I need to remove my intake manifold so maybe I'll try this.

Per their instructions on their website they basically want you to:
1 - warm up the engine
2 - run the spray with the engine running
3 - let soak for an hour
4 - drive at highway speeds

This essentially is the same procedure as sea foam. Seems to work in a similar fashion except I believe sea foam is used as a general carbon cleaner where this product seems to be specifically for intake valves and turbos for direct injection models.

Sorry guys. For whatever reason mobile wasn't uploading the photo for me. I'm not gonna try it until I see more testimonies about it. Seems a tad gimmicky.

Are you only interested in this product specifically? If you wanted a tested product, I would go with Seafoam or Gumout. Loads of info on both online and they seem to yield good results
