Anyone done Terraclean yet?

Wondering if anybody has tried this yet. Complete injection, combustion chamber emissions cleaning. My buddy at a local dealership group just starting using the system and was free or really cheap to the tech's there for training and such. These were mostly chrysler GM or ford products but all of them had noticeable improvements whether is was just idle smoother to better power. My maxima's not the smoothest idling as it had 62K+ city miles to it's life and was wondering if anybody has tried to to see if it's really worth the cost, which i have no idea how much it costs yet.

for it being smooth if you have no codes and motor mounts are ok clean the throttle body and do an idle air volume relearn.

I use BG44K system on my Maxima. I clean the injectors out every year, do full intake cleaning etc... you do NOT have to WOT the car. All you have to do is after the cleaning is complete- which happens to be AT IDLE, you go for a drive to get rid of all that junk that got burned off, and is now in your exhaust system.

Also you do an oil change after doing this.

My car with 178K miles idles smoother than new Maximas can ever dream of idleing. I'm a maintenance fanatic, plus I'm a real Maxima tech.

i like your maintenence on your max fellow tech. I do all that gravy work too. Only think i try to avoid is injector flushes. You gotta be careful what you use cause you might damage the o-rings. I mean we never have a problem but they tell us that in school
