Anyone use feul additives for injector cleaning?

My evo reads 24k on the clock and i was wondering if it was safe to use a feul additive to clean the injectors and all that other good stuff. There are alot of brands out there ranging from 2$-10$ a bottle. Wich have you used and is safe for our engines that have tunes and mods? Thanks for any info guys.

I personally use the Lucas Injector cleaner. Always adds a few MPG per tank as well. I don't have an evo, but I see no reason why it would harm a Evo and not every other car I have owned.

I don't use anything, and my fuel injectors looked great when I pulled them out at almost 40k.....not sure if they look the same inside though.

I use Chevron Techron. A few auto manufacturers have actually recommended their techs use it to help with problems. I have always heard its the best stuff you can buy from any regular store.

Chevron proguard injector cleaner or seafoam, once about every 4th fillup.
