haha... i pump caltex every time, so no need to use the additive rclxm9.gif

"To use, pour the entire bottle of TCP into a nearly empty fuel tank and refuel with up to 45 litres of petrol. Repeat every 5,000 km for best results. The company says that regular users of Caltex with Techron fuel don’t need the TCP “detox” as it’s the case of “an apple a day…” for them."

Exactly, 10x more concentrate in one shot.

Update - It seems my friends commented that TCP works best not only with Caltex fuel, but Primax also.

well if the injectors/combustion chambers aren't clogged, supposedly there would be better fuel delivery and better combustion.

but of course it could be all placebo anyways tongue.gif
personally as per my 2 feedback, not much difference.

but hey, smoothness aside, most people are using it for the peace of mind (keeping the fuel system clean) anyways wink.gif

I still facepalmed hard at those stupid idiots comment at Paul Tan's post.

"If Caltex is going to give warranty to my engine then I will use it." - Oh crap, I don't know I have been driving a broken engine all way long shakehead.gif

"Useless. Just pump V-Power and tekan. What is this Techron? Never heard before." - rclxub.gif

you know, i wonder what's the fuss with vpower, when i can just load up 97 petronas/bhp and a couple more bottles of octane boosters and then maximum ignition advance laugh.gif

sadly i can't quite do that *yet* with my inspira lol... else it'd be pretty damn fun tongue.gif

Same here. My bro used to sworn by V-Power Racing. Until I ask him to try Caltex 97 and BHP 97 + a bottle V-Safe.

I can vouch for the Techron Concentrate Plus. I'm currently in the states and this is by far the most recommended fuel additive that actually works. I use it frequently on my VW and it helps improve the mileage by a noticeable amount. I use a bottle every ~2000km. biggrin.gif

Definitely. My detailing geeks in the states sworn by this too.

how do you clean it? for DI engine?
*
Or use Threebond Engine Conditioner... Since you spray it through the intake.

When you burn something... What does it becomes and where does it goes?

Any improvements since you used 8 bottles ?

All of them were on different cars.

Noticeable improvements on (Improved FC, improved throttle performance, especially on the CGI the low end before the turbo boost is sufficient)

16 years old Kembara
3 years old C200 CGI (2 Bottles)
4 years old FD2R
6 years old Getz


Minor improvements on (Improved FC)

3 years old Hummer (2 bottles)
5 years old City

Thanks for the input, but i believe it is better to put mileage rather than the age of the car. Some car is 3 years old but already well above 100k km mileage, while some 5 year old car haven't even reach 60k km mileage
*
Kembara - 150K mileage

C200 CGI - 46K Mileage

FD2R - 42K Mileage

Getz - 58K Mileage

Hummer H3 - 16K Mileage

Honda City - 98K Mileage

Never thought BMW repack TCP as their OEM cleaner

i know mercedes also got this kind of cleaner but not sure suitable to DI engine?
Lambda Premier Set use to flush engine? mind to share link ? i am interest to my 03 wira
May i know where u did this? looking for my prince engine
Notice CGI is DI engine , this cleanser help?
*
I have Lambda Primer Set in stock if you interested, alternatively you can just look for thundergod_cid.

CGI is DI yes, it does not help with the intake valve, but for some reason the below 2500RPM powerband much smoother before the boost came in to help.

yup Hyundai is distributing that brand Blue Chem, claimed to have TUV certified etc (wonder how do we verify it?)  i used it before, but that time my car still new car (meaning the valves, fuel line probably still very clean), so, no effect felt.  the VSafe sounds unconvincing economically.. because need to add every fuel pump. unconvenient also need to add every fuel pump
*
I have 2 cartons of V-safe thought...

You've done any review on it before?

On the City, Kembara, Getz at least it gets better FC.
