Afternoon All,

Just a quick one, i have seem that on some of this stuff, its says you can pour it directly into the air intake , Can you do this on Leons? and if so any improvement etc, i have put it into the petrol tank, with not that much difference noticed.

no problems, just thought i have had the car for 4yrs , and not used this stuff before , so thought i would give it a whirl as it says it cleans the engine etc.

All these products were tested recently on a motoring programme and none of them were any good some actually reduced BHP. I'd do as Junior Senior says, use BP Ultimate or Shell V Power alot better for your car, I know as I work for one of the above companies (and not in a petrol station).

Into the air intake? Isn't that a bad idea?

Yeh agreed,

Why use something to do a job when your already paying for something to do the same job.

Its a false economy.

The only things worth using are Octane/Cetane boosters, and the good ones come with packages to do cleaning, reduce emissions, reduce smoke in diesels.

Yeh goes into fuel tank! dont think the maf or turbo will like that. It may help improve mpg but it made my car feel abit slow once. just put a full tank of v -power (change fuel filter if).
