It is applied through the air intake system to reach the backs of intake valves and turbo inlet areas where fuel additives can't access. The formula emphasizes PEA-based cleaning power and is engineered to loosen carbon, restore smoother airflow, and help recover lost performance without engine disassembly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow does CRC GDI IVD work to remove carbon from intake valves?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe cleaner introduces a concentrated PEA-rich solvent into the intake path, where it chemically softens and breaks up baked-on carbon deposits.
