All the additives had their issues, and none met the claims they all say they do.
Their tests were very controlled and if I recall only focused on the top end of the engine - not other parts of the fuel system or injectors???
BTW, been having the Christmas Tree of Lights issue on my Honda due to the injectors - I keep erasing the code with my BlueDriver app/OBD-II reader. Hoping Honda does the right thing and issues a warranty extension on them (as they did with the Honda Pilot a few years ago and their injector issues)...and I'm only 80k miles!;
Cars are no longer cars - they are electronic boxes on wheels!

...or await the recall / extended warranty on clogged fuel injectors!

Project farm is great and all, but they are narrowly focused on their testing, to the point that it becomes pretty irrelevant. Their test measures one aspect of a product with many benefits unconsidered.
This stuff isn't going to morph into unicorn and dive into your motor with a Dremel, but it is among the best in its market.
Just Google "PEA content injector cleaner list" or to that effect, and learn for yourself.
Also, Amazon has 32oz bottles regularly priced at $18.

Honda's reliability has steadily gone downhill for the last 8 years or so. Their customer service is god-awful too. Honda never took responsibility for their oil dilution problems and had to be sued. There are other problems with their cars as well. Look up Technical Service Bulletins and you'll see all of the issues for yourself. Hyundai & Kia are another brand I'd stay away from. GDI technology should be scrapped entirely. It's caused so many uncessary problems just to improve gas mileage by 2-3 miles per gallon.
Toyota still uses EFI in many models until 2017/2018. Their tacoma(4 cyl), 4runner, Lexus GX have EFI until 2023/2024. Toyota puts engine model on door sticker, like 2GR-FE, you can easily search it in google or wikipedia
Ford had EFI v6 until 2017
Stellantis v6 are still EFI but their I4 is DI.
Remove engine's beauty cover, if you see extra metal piping and a metal cylinder next to camshaft, that's the high pressure fuel pump and pipes for DI.
or go to any online part store, enter your vehicle info and search for fuel pump or fuel injector. If you see 2 different types of pump (one in tank, one next to camshaft), or if your injector is full metal, with long nozzle, and super expensive, that's DI.

For cleaning the intake path and other stuff, something like Seafoam may work better. That and B12 Chemtool have been independently tested to work for soaking pistons (can help with some cases of excessive oil consumption), and Seafoam cleans intake runners when sucked in through a vacuum line. Inspection cameras are cheap these days - you can take a look before and after yourself.
Of course no additive is going to fix a problem that lies elsewhere, or one that doesn't exist, so surely a lot of people waste money on this sort of thing all the time. I wouldn't expect Marvel Mystery Oil to save a dying engine, but Techron isn't snake oil.

Car makers are having to make these new engines without the proper testing and engineering that has been the standard in the past. We are driving the test engineering they are doing now to properly figure these engines out. The engineering will eventually get there.
Another area that car makers are dealing with, is reducing total weight, to gain another 1-2 mpg. Take the battery. In a Honda, you're lucky to get 4-5 years out of a brand new car battery - more likely 3.5 years. I've never in my life, have gone through 2 batteries in 6-7 years. On my 3rd battery, I went with slightly more powerful battery type, with more Cold Cranking Amps, and a bit heavier - that battery will last a longer period of time I feel. Same goes for all the plastic parts on these cars - all about losing weight to get that 1-2 mpg more.
I just recently bought a Hybrid - I went with Toyota because Toyota has been doing Hybrid for 20+ years and you rarely hear of Toyota Hybrid issues - I believe they are the best at it - much better than all of the other car makers trying to do Hybrid. I wouldn't touch a Hyundai, Kia, or any other Korean or Chinese designed/made vehicle. Same goes for Nissan - they are not what they once were. Ford, Chevy, & Dodge - Nope - been there - done that - NEVER again! I won't even mention European.
That, unfortunately, leaves us with either Toyota AND Honda - and while Honda may have their engineering growth issues, I'd take them over any of those others listed above if you want reliability - you just need to make sure and factor into your purchase price to purchase a FACTORY Extended warranty if you plan to keep it - these parts today are NOT cheap & the warranty will pay for itself on the 1st major repair. It will be a money maker on the 2nd major repair!
This isn't meant to be authoritative, but I know a very experienced Honda tech. He says they rarely do anything major to vehicles less than 5-6 years old, aside from precautionary recalls that don't produce symptoms in most cars, and most of their repair (non-maintenance) work is on high mileage vehicles and ones that have been badly neglected. I do own a Honda but it's my first in a long time and is only up to 50k, and well maintained by me. I'm a big fan of Mazda reliability though - we've had a ton in the family and they've only every needed routine maintenance, without exception (not counting my RX-7's back in the day, of course).

I agree with you mostly. The cafe standards ruined the automobile industry. Toyota is the only reliable car manufacturer left and if you do have problems, they're more likely to stand behind their product than the rest. Toyota is extremely conservative too. They let the fools rush in and wait until the dust settles, before deciding whether or not to implement the latest technology. But I personally don't like being forced to drive a hybrid either. I don't want to worry about two different powertrains.
Nissan? Hard pass. A guy I worked with had a theory that every time you notice a car that looks like it's in pain or is falling apart, it's a Nissan Altima. So of course I notice beater Altimas every day now. I don't know, maybe it's to their credit that they can be beat to hell and stay on the road? We don't have state safety inspections here so we see some ROUGH cars.
For all the credit that vaunted "German engineering" gets, their cars seem to break down a LOT. VW dealerships are relatively well liked, but that's because they get a lot of practice, since every owner spends a lot of time there. My old BMW still runs great at 180k miles but it has leaked everything from everywhere for a long time, as if it thinks it's British.

I only know this because I have one with this 3.5 and I have a number of Hyundai which I treat with GRC cleaner once a year along w/ Techron. You can just use tier 1 gas (which has PEA) but I also juice it once a year as per Hyundai recommendation.
Some VW have unique intake setup and they are very prone to issues, so if you are concerned go to the forum and ask.

This is just a short list of Honda problems that is VERY widely complained and discussed about on these forums - so much so, that these are STICKEY'd on top of the forums. And these are vehicles in the last two Honda generations.
Honda, while a vehicle brand that has a large following and many older vehicles that easily can go 300k miles with normal upkeep, is starting to have reliability issues with these latest generations. I acknowledge that all vehicle brands have their issues but those listed above are not simple issues, they're major - and they are happening within 100k miles - well outside of the normal 3/36 warranty period.
What vehicles have required fuel injector replacement (@ $1,400+) before 100k miles?? I know of a 1999 vehicle with the original injectors in it...it still runs fine.
