New Process Decarb Engine

Just watched a UK Wheeler Dealer TV program, restoring a Jag Xk8. The mechanic used a "modern and new" process to decarbonize the engine which increased performance and reduced emmisions. I found this advert on youtube, (see link below).

Has any Crossfire owner used this process or something like it.

Can anyone recommend it??

Thanks for the responses.
In theory the process sounds brilliant. Carbon deposits are removed from the whole engine system inc sensors and the catalytic convertor by effectively vaporising it.

Here’s another link to the sales blurb.

So has no crossfire owner has used this in the USA / UK?

TRY water injection, does the same sort of thing, the steam decreases NO and erodes the carbon build up on the combustion chamber. Woody Compensates for poor quality gas, no knock due to preignition.

Thanks for the new info.
I will look into the alternative process you have mentioned. Obvioulsy I dont like the idea of anybody messing with my car, (especially the engine) unless they have a proven track record and offer gurantees. I found another UK link to a company which provides the service, (UK ONLY). I will just have to wait for more evidence i think and an MOT emissions failure before I ever go down this route.
