I did use it in a Volvo 480 that i had.  I thought i could notice the difference, but it wasn't huge.  Worth the cash anyway as it will help clean those injectors...

Used to use it all the time with my previous DCOE 40'd XR2 (No Ford jokes ok - I was young ! ) ... made a massive difference, not tried it on the golf yet.

"massive" ?  yeah it was noticable, but it wasn't exactly life changing.  yeah you're right, i'll have to slurp some into the golf.....

My dad once accidently filled my 8v with City Diesel.

Not reccomended but it cleaned the injectors.

Yeah it was "Massive", probably says more about the condition of the engine than any raising of the octane to produce more power.

I think after a few applications it'll level off - after all any engine over 60 / 70k will have carbon and crap everywhere !

Anyone tried that Ecotek stuff for removing deposits in the engine ??

Used to use it on my 596 Chevy F1 Stock car in my younger days... Great for short bursts but eats valves in the long run and asks for regular engine rebuilds.

Gives a giggle but you need to be prepared for the after run of maintenance

No no, nitrox not nitrous ..

Chevy on steroids !  sounds like a beast !
