Partly reliant on Pseudo science bollocks. Throw a load of fancy sciencey sounding, technical jargon at some flush, dopey car enthusiasts and you have a good business.
If an engine is so fked to the point performance is being affected (low compression etc), excluding the fact I'd be worried about how it got in that state, then a proper strip down is the way to go. Otherwise, why bother on an otherwise ok engine? Get some water injection on, rocket those egts and burn the carbon deposits off properly!
Also, there is a lack of any proper independent testing, lols... Although if you are really interested, there is a proper thesis out there exploring the principles used.
