have u ever heard of BG44k and if so have any ratings on it.

only use an octane booster or injector cleaner but as you should run the car on 99 ron fuel theres not much difference if the car has been mapped well

I've got another thread up on this on another forum I frequent. I don't normally put a lot of faith in these sort of additives but I recently tried BG44K in two petrol cars and my run-about diesel (actually BG244K in that) and can only say that I was impressed. However, this is not a performance enhancer, it's a fuel system and cylinder cleaner that removes deposits from the fuel system and carbon from the cylinders so attempts to restore lost power and running issues, not enhance power as such. All I can say is, after all the reading I did, with what seemed to be some genuine evidence of inspected cylinder bores before and after, it was worth doing it on the ones I used it on, cured a misfire on one, and both others running better - easy to be subjective and be taken in because you want to beleive it, but I can honestly say I know all 3 cars well enough that it was worth doing this before trying to chase problems. Certainly cheaper than a new set of injectors or a de-coke and if it doesn't then it's only £20 off ebay, worth a try in my view. And if you buy it from the UK supplier they are supposed to offer a money back guarantee.
