The cleaner stuff I am talking about is designed to clean out your engine, Subaru wrx's are renound to gum up and using the cleaner is just another part of their service, doesn't harm your engine at all and improves fuel economy by cleaning all the carbon build up allowing the engine to breath better, after cleaning mine I gained an extra 150klm to a tank! I learnt the trick off a mate who is the leading hand of a Subaru work shop, take the throttle body off and clean that seprate because there is a lot of little cavities that need extra attention but if you leave it at that all your carbon build up stays in everything behind the throttle body

Only place I've been able to get it from is at a Subaru workshop it's around $20 aus a can, in the wrx it should be done at least every 2nd service but at $20 a can I'd do it every service
