i'm putting on a midpipe Monday jackson.. before I do the install though i'm going to run the zoom zoom cleaner through again and let it settle while I install.. then I'm going to see if I *finally* get some smoke which will prove my theory that my CAT has been screwed since forever..

^ I concur. The procedure is described in detail in this very thread. They service guys should be doing whatever is listed there as the procedure.

Were you watching them do the whole thing? Its supposed to sit inside the engine for like an hour before starting it. Then, they start it and see smoke.

Holy dog manure... please post that stealership in the worst ever thread.. the plugs shouldn't cost you more than $125 shipped and the install is easy as baking a pie.. if someone at a dealership wanted to charge me that for plugs I would literally say "awesome does your wife come with that $500, or is that in the labor?" and walk away.

Lol well im in luck cause i know this guy who works with Rotary engines and some other cars. he does porting to swaps and turbo installs. hes the only rotary wiz up till san antonio from McAllen. His work is awesome, one of his customers has a Rx7 FC pushing more then 500hp.... I asked him how much is for spark plugs and installation? he told me between 125-200 so i think thats not bad. ill tell him to do the Zoom power engine cleaner and spark plugs.

OK.
I work @ a Service Department. This 'Combustion chamber cleaner' can be installed in many ways. the best, most effective way of using it, is to inject the chemical into a hot engine as states in the first post, then let it sit for an hour or so....however, after starting up vehicle (assembled) take it for a blast at high rpms. with an increased engine load, carbon deposits are cleaned off further and the process is more effective. Ive done this service many times and that is by far the best. If your dealer drove the vehicle after the process, you should really thank him instead of not knowing whats going on and criticizing. Its the ones that dont drive it after service are the ones you SHOULD look out for. With no engine load, your not using the chemical to its full potential. Most of the time, dealers will spray it and pull it right out (time is money and a tech will not babysit) unless they set it aside for later (unlikely).
Oh, and you will see a LOT of smoke.. its fascinating IMO.
