It's great! The smoothness of the engine after that was.. wow! Best $18.50 I ever spent!

Yes but the cat will catch a lot of it eh?

Want to try it out?

This stuff is how the mechanic gets your car running so nice so easy.

Yes it will hit the cat but it will burn off in 5 mins.

As Dann said above, and yes i'm keen to do it next weekend if you are up for it.

ATM Sunday i'm doing some odd jobs with Victor AKA Badbong for his SP. But it's not a big sidetrack, i'll get some cans from the Suburu at Lindfield midweek

I'll be there, so will Apu (i think as he needs to beat my times) and hopefully Hamx5ter. At the moment, Badbong won't be at the track meet unless he states otherwise, his cars to beautiful to track!

Maybe badbong needs to htfu?
Just maybe.

Im so keen I can hardly wait. Ill have 30 kilos less weight than ever before. 20 odd hp more than any other track day, new bushes, finally a god damned race seat in it, and some new r specs. Never tracked this car on them. no oil leaks either. Im sure theres more... More bracing. Getting so much work done while its out of rego.

Is there a september 4th thred yet?

Just used half a can of this in the inlet manifold (sprayed past the open throttle butterfly), cranked over & waited for 10 minutes as per Dann's notes, then started and ran at moderate revs for a few minutes. Was a bit of whitish smoke on revving but not too bad, and smoke lasted for a minute or two. Car now revs smoother, feels less coarse, and the little stumble that the car had just off idle when taking off from rest is now gone. The idle speed was not affected. Stuff seems good, does have a positive effect on the running of the car. Have saved the other half of the can for before the next service. Now for the oil change today.

I just bought a can each for both our cars and will see how it goes.

Cool. So what, you walk into Subaru service dept and ask for a can? How come SuperCheap/Repco/Autobahn etc don't stock something similar.... Or do they?

Autoone/pro??? not sure which one at Chatswood, have a very similar product.
Can not quite remember the name but it was upper engine cleaner.
Can looked almost identical. Was about $15 a can from memory.

I bought it from Subaru spare parts in Adelaide. Yep, just ask for it, was $18.95.
