jamesmark Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Seen it on Wheeler Dealers first and then on a random Facebook page that came up. Is it worth it, or is it a load of BS and returns very little? This is the company that was on FB, £99 and thinking maybe worth a shot for that price. http://www.enginecarbonclean.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bought a 2011 Volvo V50. Only the 1.6 Drive model as do a lot of miles so went for the MPG. Going to get her remapped and was thinking a carbon clean if it works would be a good compliment to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Bullitt Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 No problem, you could always get a water methanol injection kit fitted to the Supra for a more permanent solution. The Aquamist kits (http://www.aquamist-direct.com/806-063-hfs3-v3-1-system-a-truly-progressive-system-utilising-pwm-valve/) are good value and Richard has a lot of knowledge.

Not for a Supra, left the Supra scene years ago. This is for a different animal.................Volvo V50. Just looking at things to keep it fresh, only just bought it but I do a shed load of miles with work, so possibly carbon clean and remap was on the cards. Deffo a remap.

Frank Bullitt Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 In which case you need to keep an eye on the classified section Is the Volvo petrol or diesel? Does the car have a turbo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 Diesel and yeah it has a turbo, probably the size of a sparrow. As I claim mileage from my work, my focus for the car I use for work has shifted to getting the most MPG possible. If I ever decide to go for another weekend car and don't go for a classic Mini, I will not be giving 2 hoots about MPG. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I'd say give Chris Wilson a knock, he loves Volvos albeit I think his preference is towards more older models. I spoke to him at length regarding water injection and also Richard the owner of Aquamist both of whom are of the opinion that a Turbo car shouldn't be without a system. I believe water injection is a more permanent solution as apposed to a quick fix like the Terraclean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
