Default Injector Cleaner

Would it be good to run some injector cleaner through my car? I've never used any before and have 460cc injectors on my boosted civic
thanks

So will my engine run any differently if I use a bottle in a tank of gas like it says to?

of your 95? Yeah i'd say after 12 years Seafoam would do alot (although if you swapped, your motor might not be that old, but still, it's probably a good idea). I've basically heard nothing but good things about SeaFoam

If your going to run seafoam through the vac lines ( intake manifold) you prolly should get new spark plugs to swap in after you run it through cause it will gum it up with a lot of carbon and junk. Also remove 02 sensors, and if possible replace cat converter.

When I ran it through it clogged up my cat for awhile because of all the smoke from chemicals and deposits. Still don't think it's the same... but it should get better over time. However I didn'tunplug my 02 sensors when I did it and they are fine (to my knowledge). Just threw a code for awhile but after a few resettings went away.
