I noticed a small improvement in throttle response in my MR2.

run through the heads, put it in gas, or the oil..........all does well.

you will see the most effect from running it through the top end of the motor just as directed on the bottle....works great and cleans well.

works fucking awesome. usually helps gas milage abit, along with throttle response and the smoothness of revving. I usually do half a can before an oil change/spark plug change, then go through 3 thousand miles on the new oil and plugs, use the other half of the can, then change plugs and oil again. runs like a brand new engine. sk8rmike and i did it to his GSX, pulls smoother and abit harder. shit is gold in a can.
