Where do deposits form that rob performance?
And what are the ways to get rid of those deposits? My car feels a bit sluggish compared to other cars w/ almost the same HP.
I've Seafoamed my car once a few months ago, with decent results. Made it slightly faster. I didn't use much seafoam and didn't see as much smoke as most of the youtube videos showed. Gonna do it again this weekend but use more. That will clean the crankcase, fuel injectors, and inside the cylinders. Doesn't similar deposit form throughout the exhaust? No way seafoam cleaned that, since it's burned before then. So what can you do to clean out your exhaust (besides get a new one)? I love the feeling of when you get a new exhaust put on until all the deposits form.

One of the biggest things that'll rob power is a clogged cat. IMO the second biggest power robber due to deposits is a clogged fuel injector.
