not really.. seafoam doesn't ALWAYS increase your horsepower, and it's probably like 5hp and 5tq at most with using at least a can of the ----.

when i had water leaking into my intake, it cleaned it out much better than seafoam ever did ;)

i do recommend everyone who hasn't already, pick up a can of seafoam (i believe only available at Napa Autoparts stores) and throw some in your car. no, it doesn't not hydrolock your car.. it's combustable. it eats up all the carbon and ---- everywhere. this stuff is basically an all-purpose carbon remover

- put a 1/4 can in a half or quarter tank of gas
- put a 1/4 can in your oil fill a few hundred miles before you need a change
- spray a few spritzes after your car is warm into each cylinder via the spark plugs, then fire it up (should take a little longer than normal) and wail on it >:D

oh yea, neighbors tend to look at your funny as you roll down the street trailing a big ass cloud of smoke.

word...... a leaky headgasket in the right place will clean your ---- better than any cleaner....

a neighbors car had the headgasket leak coolant into the cylinders.... and they were clean as ----...

maybe a trick would be to fill your windshield washer resevoir with distilled water(maybe some alcohol), then route and secure the line/hose leading it into the turbo inlet, or intake if N/A.... then rig up a switch to the throttle so it only activates at 75% throttle or somewhere around there... im pretty sure that after a month or so your ---- will be running way cleaner...

well mine, i was running charge pipes on my n/a (for shits and giggles) combined with 25 straight days of rain (1 day without.. now we're on another ------- 25 days), and charge pipes weren't completely sealed up. so, there was a little water near the bottom of the pipes, and when WOT, water would get sucked in, and before i could hit vtec in 2nd or 3rd, it would bog out and sometimes die. would crank really slowly like a low battery, then start up, pouring hella white smoke. so i wouldn't really suggest the 75% throttle idea.. maybe a switch that would spray a LITTLE in when you gave it some gas.

i did run like this for a good month, when i took off the charge pipes and put back on the CAI, i was chirping 3rd like it was nothing :8 definately felt like it gained a little torque, as it pulls better in 2nd and 3rd than it used it

I saw some on the shelf of O'reilly yesterday. They probably have it all over the place now.

I'll never buy it, I don't see any reason why ???

how? it can't hydrolock your motor cuz it's combustable and compressable (it comes compressed in a can for christs sake). i don't see how removing caked-on carbon from inside your motor is bad ???
